I am thinking of buying a set of 4 taillights for the new corvette and molding them into my rear end for my tail lights. What are your thoughts on this???? They would look like two red ovals with white on the bottom on both sides. If your not sure what they look like go to ebay and do a search.

Ya they are! I was thinking of taking the whole rear end off and having the licence place peice and tails made into one peice. Then putting on a rear bumper (not sure of what yet) I will photoshop it and show it off. I think it would look great! J- |

it looks ugly...if you have a celica stick with the celica look don't try to shave new taillights from other cars. but it's up to you anyways....i'd say you just go jdm.

On the Drivers side is a Dodge Neon taillight, on the passangers side is a RSX taillight. I think I might just go S2000....lol

do whatever you think looks good man. 90% of people are gonna say keep the stock tails or JDM, so do whatever you like, otherwise whats the point.

True-pol, that ideal has crossed my mind more then once. I would go with the european corvette tailights instead of the USA ones. They can be found on ebay. They look bitching! The good thing about these lights, is that mini-truck shops sell mold in kits available in corvette, supra and other custom tailight shapes.
