New Rear Body Kit w/ ROUND TAILS for C7!
|
It's been posted and it would kill the vents for trans/diff cooling, plus negatively affect the aero changes.
Enjoy? |
makes the c7 look old no likey
|
DUPE :beatdeadhorse:and terrible :ack: .

I LOVE IT!!!!! Somebody in the aftermarket is gonna figure out how to make it all work with the vents, and if I get a C7 I'm gonna be all in on that.

Not a good idea.:crazy2: Read the text from the article below.
All we can say is that we hope this really is just some kind of a bad joke, and that nothing like this actually makes production. Additionally, we’ll throw in our advice to anyone who might consider doing something like this to a C7 once they got their hands on one: Just buy a C6. You’ll save yourself both a good bit of cash a ton of grief from other Corvette fans who won’t be too impressed with your retro body kit. |
Here is what Corvette Online had to say about it:
We get it. The C7 Corvette is a pretty drastic departure from the C6, which was a very nice design in its own right. But is that really any reason to go and get all weepy and mopey about how different the C7 is from what’s considered “traditional” Corvette styling? We certainly hope that nostalgia doesn’t get the best of future C7 owners, because the consequences could be pretty ugly. Our buds over at GM Authority recently found this ad posted on an Italian Corvette forum for a C7 rear body kit. As you can see it is meant to “correct” the C7’s more angular taillights to the more expected round taillights on the C6. After we stopped face-palming and shaking our heads in disbelief, we searched the Italian forum as best we could (without actually being able to read Italian), and couldn’t find the original ad or forum post. All we can say is that we hope this really is just some kind of a bad joke, and that nothing like this actually makes production.

You’ll save yourself both a good bit of cash a ton of grief from other Corvette fans who won’t be too impressed with your retro body kit. Hey, nostalgia is fine – as long as wallowing in it doesn’t keep you from moving forward. |

The retro look may not be the way to go, but what I love about this pic is that it looks less busy and makes more sense. |
Get over it. Round tail lights are gone. I am sure you will get use to the new look once you start seeing them on the road.

Laugh all you want, there are a lot of others who want a solution to the rear. Anything to make that rear better. The tailights can stay the same as they are, just anything to take all of that play out and make it "smooth".

:trainwreck: |
With the sharp lines everywhere, round tail lights just do not work on the C7, they look completely out of place.
But, in the end, whatever floats your boat. If I had the means to mass produce a rear end like this, I'd certainly do it, place a ridiculous price on it and laugh all the way to the bank. |
