One thing that's disappointiong about the stock lights in how cloudy the plastic covers always look. In every picture I've seen of the C6 headlights that cover looks cloudy.

In other cars that cover is always chrystal clear. Like on this Camry for instance.

It is just the lighting and the angle, because the Vettes lenses are basically on top of the fender they will reflect the sky or lighting.

If not, the aftermarket will take care of it.

Probably just a thing called reflections. Most people taking photos are not using polarizing filters, which can reduce or eliminate some reflections. Just complain to the photographers.

That's what I originally thought too, but even the official corporate images show a cloudy cover.

But look at the sun shining off of the nose! I'd say it's probably just reflection from the sun. Hopefully we'll all know for sure very soon.
