GM also announced they will be selling conversion kits for C6 owners to convert their tail lights to far better C7 tail light system, that includes the specialized cooling system venting.

Well its clear its not the lights themselves on the C7 that I hate because this picture looks like the nicest rear ever on a corvette. In fact, I'd do that too my C6 if I still owned it and it was available.

There is just something to the boxed-in square butt on the C7 that is decidedly grand-am cheap looking to me. I also hate the ZR1 full length spoiler on the C6 and its standard on the C7.

I'll be in the market for one of these guys if someone decides to make a rear bumper with a better design, I can't get over that fiasco!

Hope people like and again, excuse my amateur skills, I know the tail lights suck more than the rest of it.
I like your design .
