    I don't like the way the big ones light up. American cars use big taillights, that's because when they give 'dem GMs facelifts, it's always the headlights or taillights that they change.

    I think smoked early lights look the best...

            LOL, I knew I'd get some sh*t for that. :) That's why I rarely post pictures of the rear of my car.

            I did that about 5 years ago when I didn't know any better. I have an IE stainless catback in my basement waiting to be put on, but I still need an "i" cat and some "i" headers (probably the redesigned IE ones).

                    I think that the later style tail's look better stock than how the pre '88's look. But nothing beats smoked taillights on a pre '88.

                      The old ones are serously nasty, new all the way.

                      I bombed Korea every night.

                        Can someone get a better pic from the back straight on of the old and new style. I must be blind because I can't see a difference in any of the pics that have been posted. :oops: :roll:
