In order of likeness:

1). #3

2). #1

In other words, don't get #2.

Re: which tail light covers should i get

Number 3 the best
then 1,
then 2

2 is nasty

If you are worried about apperance then get rid of that nasty looking bra on the front of your car

I prefer just the simple blacked out GTO ones, i have those on my vert, and love them, it goes along with the black theme i have. I do not have any updated pics though. I will try to get on that.

AGREED!

I have a set ill sell you cheap! Ill have to check to make sure they didnt get any scratches from sitting in the garage though! You'd have to get the Velcro stuff of course! I had the "black theme" going on too but the reason i dont use them anymore is because i have a black back panel now and i put the blackouts on for about 10 min's and decided they had to go!

Re: which tail light covers should i get

It's hard to really make a good judgement until you do some more mods to your car. All three of those aren't going to look right without correct accents. For instance, the 2nd one that everyone puts down so much can look PERFECT on certain Camaros... it all depends on what styling and theme you have going for the car. The first one, well... I can't really think of any theme that would make that look good unless you went to autozone and got those chevy bowtie foglamps and maybe those chevy bowtie exhaust tips. For the second one, if you had the PIAA headlight conversion, PIAA/Hella circular fog lamps, some sort of aftermarket-not-commonly-used spoiler... then the tail lights could work. I have a vague rememberance of just recently seeing someone else's car here in this section with #2's taillight covers and the commando wing... while it doesn't look good on most cars, that camaro looks great!

...In a nut shell, you need to do some styling in addition to those tail light covers to pull it off right.

Re: which tail light covers should i get

If the black grill has horizontal or vertical lines (like the stull grill, is that what it's called?) then #3 would probably go quite well.
