Default Headlights

I know on the C6, you could choose different color headlight inserts to give the headlights a different look. I thought I heard someone from the Corvette design team talking about smoked or tinted headlight glass in one of the many videos I've seen here. Then, I noticed that in some photos posted in this forum the headlights appear darker than in others. So, what gives? Is it a trick of the light? Is the glass darker on some? Will there be/is there an option regarding the headlight appearance? If so, I'm not seeing anything on the order guide. Does anyone "in the know" here in the forum have any info on this. I'm thinking that some kind of tint or darker insert would go great with the carbon flash accents and CF roof on some car colors.

If it isn't on the order form, it is not available, at least to the general public. I'm sure there is some thought to headlight options and the future looks bright (HA! HA!) couldn't resist. Remember exterior lighting has to be government approved. This approval held up lighting advancement for years in the US.
