Agree. Hard for me to remember any appearance changes that I thought improved on the factory configuration. Don

Those are even fuglier than the ones in the current thread about converting a C7 to round tail lights. I didn't think that was possible.

No - I like my C7 just the way it came from the factory - the angles and edges all work together very well, imho. Round taillights would spoil the impact of the design. I think that Ed Welborn and his design team did a great job on this car!

Are you trying to put 2014 Camaro taillights on the C7?

I don't know about better. I like mine the way it is. The only appearance change I plan to make is to braces on the front grill. Eventually I will probably do a cai and a tune. That being said, it's your car, do what you like.

Someone posted this photoshop in another thread. I think it looks pretty good. I bet if a vendor made these, they would sell quite a few.

My first impression when viewed from the angle shown on the first post was that it had a slight Mopar/Challenger look to it. Some may like it but not for me. However it is your car so go for it.
