Looks like Ferrari liked it so well, they penned their design closely to the Aero Lens ;)

(Aerobody lens design dates back to 1989 - the Ferrari was 1992 at the earliest that I could tell... )

Look at the resemblance to the Aerobody Taillights...

Hmmm, interesting. The aerobody tail lenses are worth 10hp. Dunno bout the Ferrari lense.. kinda looks alien!
 
I think everybody here know's there the c12 taillights come from? (and it's not a Ferrari)...

Personally i think the Ferr. taillights are great (accent white cirkels in them) But the Callaway Aero lights are just over the top! Is't a great difference with the original 2 seperate light's and jet you can still say in a moment that it's a corvette light! Now that's the art off creating!! And there are many corvette lovers over here that don't understand me... :D

Chris, the taillights are from the Opel Tigra (smal/midi european car) I didn't know it till somebody told me and they are the same!

Here you have them:

That is VERY :cool I do not look at a great deal of Euro cars - how interesting - I suppose I will add that to the "What if a C12 gets rear-ended - where do I get parts" file ;)

thanks :m
 
Is a very good idea Chris!

I think you can better order a lens over here in Europe from Opel then get a new one from Callaway (i don't know for sure, but i think callaway maybe putting the price a little bit up...)
You can't use any other body parts of the Tigra for a C12 as far as i know :)

And it's the same over here, i know very little about the american normal car's that are for sale now...

Geeebuss, same tail lense, yet awesome looking on the C12.
