Default Tail Lights

I see so many purists, converts, and full-on-board members when it comes to the tail lights. I personally love them and think that the old style (which I used to love) looks dated. How does everyone else feel?

I like the new tail lights. But the rear end still looks like a mess.

Bingo. No offense OP but you are bringing up a sensitive topic from january. In a nutshell what has happened since then? Half people hate the tail lights, the other half like them. Through out the year, some people that disliked them now can live with them. Thats the trend. I would now delete this thread.

Forum etiquette rule number 1: Dont post threads until you've taken a good look around at what has already been posted.

Welcome to the Internet! Feel free to take a moment to look around and get your bearings. There's a lot of information out there. Careful where you click, though. You never know what you might find.

I like whatever lights they put on the Vette. It's all good.
