Opinions everyone!!!

With the fall upon us and I finally got that stupid bumper fixed along with a new lower grill(fingers crossed, a new law for one license plate on the docket) but anyway, other than interior mods(Katzkins), I also need your opinion on these two C6 version taillights(smoked version of course), No 1.) which ones look better and 2.) if any of you have added these to your CamaroGen5, how do you like them? Don't pay attention to the cost, with coupons, there's just an $80 dollar difference. Thanks as always.!!

If you have 7-9 weeks (but likely months) to wait, option 2. Otherwise, option 1 would be my choice

Second link for me. The ones in the first link are too busy for me.

None of the above. Not a fan of anything from the Gen 6 on the Gen 5 except maybe the wheels. What about upgrading to the Gen 5 RS taillights? I've always thought they looked cool. Those Gen 6 "arrows" remind me of the old bicycle turn-signals. Just my opinion of course.

I have the second pair. The C8 style was too expensive and the sequential wasn't available.
I still love the smoked so there's a little contrast.

Here's the install video if you're interested.

I really wish they made cool taillights for those of us with pre-refresh cars. I really don't care for any of the options we have available, and yes I have seen them all.
