a redesigned c7 rear
I was bored and I'm not photoshop pro but I made a new design that I liked, aside from tail lights, which I'd liked to have seen like the c6 design but LEDS.
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.

only 1 day after the reveal and the round tail light is starting to show its age. I was one of the thousands of people hating on the rear end, however, its slowly starting to grow on me. By time they release the car , the round lights will look old imo

I can deal the square lights personally but that vent thing that hangs down drives me nuts. functionality or not, they can redesign a better design with the same efficiency.
If I had to see square lights on it with functionality, that is a great example of win/win.

GM today announced they feel strongly enough about their tail light/cooling system design that they will develop an algorithm that will engage the AFM system if customizers remove the factory tail light/cooling systems. This will leave all customizers operating with only 4 cylinders until dealers reboot the system at customer cost.
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.

You know, I've never noticed how decidedly 80s the rear end of the R8 looks like until now...

I like the new tail light design. Yes, it does resemble the Camaro but still very different. Im tired of the round lights. Hell, from a distance I cant tell a C6 from a C4! Especially at night.

I love the new c7 design and execution.
I am sure for a few dollars the aftermarket will cater to those that want. Round tail lights...
I prefer GM s solution in the new design yet for those that need round lights it will be an easy fix. The aftermarket will easily meet your request.
