In good ol' LEO_06GT fashion, I'm going to do a poll on whether my car looks good with chrome taillight bezels, or not.

Originally, I bought a set made by V-Tech and they didn't fit right at all and they hit the bumper cover in the corners. This was unfortunate, because I really did like the look. I just got these from American Muscle today and wanted to get some opinions.

They fit perfectly, not at all like the V-Tech brand. They are thinner than the V-Techs and that's why they don't hit the bumper at the corners.

That said, I think they are very tasteful and really add to the retro look without adding any bling (plus they don't stand out as much on a white car). Here are several angles and a few with one on and one off. They are just laying in place, so they aren't on correctly and may look like they are crooked:

I dont think they would look good on my car, but your car pulls it off. It looks great.

I actually prefer the black tail light bezels.
But then again it depends on the car color.

looks very nice Tom

No, Tom No. Anyone that tell's you other wise is trying to elminate some compition at the next show. Like I said on the other thread black would look better and match your SHR panel.

Unless you plan on adding the following I'd take it off.

Glenn

no!!!

GRAYPNY

Not a fan of the tail light or fog light bezels. I have tried them both and sold them. If you like them on your car then that's all that matters. I voted no~

Lennyb44

I voted yes, because they do look good.
But, I think on your car they would look better in black.

I kinda like the chrome,your faux gas cap being chrome doesn't hurt either.They compliment each other.

89Trooper

Is that true, Chuck??

89Trooper

Thanks for all the opinions. I voted yes because there are several things on the car that they match - rear center medallion, exhaust tips (when clean), polished ring on the rims, etc.

Eventually, if given enough time, I think this poll would go to 50-50 because it basically comes down to personal opinion. They aren't wrong or right, good or bad... luckily we're all different.

Now, if I asked if I should put an 8" lift kit on the car, I think the poll would be a little 1-sided.

89Trooper

Hey, sodaman, how did ya vote twice? Now the poll is lopsided!

I originally bought mine with the intention of painting them black. After I test fitted them before paint, my family all loved them chrome. I installed them chrome and I've had alot of nice compliments on them. I still kinda wish mine were black, but I voted yes.

MustangGuy

Yes restrained look of chrome good. But then again I am not a fan of black. jmo, don't mean to offend, but we are expressing opinions. However, I do like the black honeycomb panel.

Seen 'em on a ride out here and don't like the look too much.

I'm glad I didn't take the plunge after seeing them in person.

Iceknyght

Me like!

I have them on my car too and love how they look! My sister got some for her car too after seeing mine! I agree though on an earlier comment, they are not for every car, I have seen them on certain colors that just don't look right... But I like them on your ride!

LimeGT

Please don't. Your car is my favorite Performance White. I love the simple contrast of the white and black along with the red interior accents. The chrome trim just doesn't look like it belongs on your car.

p.s. If I see 'em next weekend I'm gonna steal 'em and then hide 'em.

freyke

I like 'em, I've got 'em.

pferd

I vote yes....but I've got some in my basement, waiting to install

Boltzman

Would I do that?
