A vendor started on a project like this years ago, posted photos here on Corvette Forum that showed the rear fascia to receive the C6 lights, but I don't think it ever went anywhere. You can find via a search of Corvette Forum, I think.

That picture was just a bad photoshop. I don't even think the C6 lights would fit in there without major modifications to the openings. Your talking about a completely custom made part.

You sure about that?

Production of C6's in the first five years(2005-2009) was 164,220.

Production of C7's in the first five years(2014-2018) was 154,675.

The C6 numbers would have been even higher had it not been for the economy crashing in 2008, 2009 etc.

2018 was an extremely shortened model year. That accounts for a lot.
Also in terms of people who never once thought about Corvette, their perception changed with the C7. I know a lot of people who wouldn't own a C5 or C6, they absolutely love the C7. The car was never on their radar before. The changes were for the best.
