I think those are only on Camaros that are shipped overseas. I like the reverse lights not on bumper.

There are always ways to get things. It just depends on how much you want to spend.

Most people don't like these but the more I see them the more they grow on me.
Note that the "reverse bright white lights" are built into the tail light instead of being built into the bumper

you are absolutely right,good observation there, looks like you have to buy the whole rear bumper then, the lights on top of the diffuser look ok i guess, just smoke them out(:

It looks like there are side turn signal indicators on them as well. Also look at the rear side markers. They are amber. This car is definitely export spec.

Yeah, the whole rear skin would have to be replaced to eliminate the center post between the lights and drop the back-ups.. The strips above the diffuser are probably just reflectors. Some countries (ours included) require a specific amount of red reflective material on the back of cars. Since the taillights are LED, they don't have the reflective prism properties of the older standard lens. You see these strips on newer Mazdas and other ricers.

I'm likin' the lights. Very modern looking. If I hadn't already installed the Technostalgia lights.

i wouldnt mind them on mine either, and deleting the reverse lights in the bumper would be nice bonus... im sure they arent cheap thou, and buying/painting a bumper cover wont be either. not worth it, unless you have a money tree in the back yard and your not sharing!!

When I saw them, the first thing I thought was "Elton John"...they kinda remind me of some of those huge sunglasses he used to wear. After looking at them for a while, they actually don't look too bad...
