Custom tailights.

I saw these on a C6 and I already had the aftermarket lights so a local guy tinted and cleared them.

Looks like he did a good job tinting the taillights.

Those do look nice. I experimented with that concept several years ago and got ate up by members on this site for various different reasons. Here's what I tried.

It looks like they are the Adjure C6 LED tails that he mounted and wired up.

Looks like he also put them behind a smoked lense to fill in the extra oval space to hide the left over gap. Hadn't seen anyone put C6 tails on a C5 like that before.
