most people on here despise the 96+ tails, personally i don't think they look bad but i just like ours because they are different. Your car looks good though. anyways, all that matters is that you like them!!!

not that I don't like the tails they look cool and are brighter then ours so it seems but ours define our years and I think thats the whole gripe. Looks good

Did you go from the stock midpipe to a bassani catted x?

How much of a volume difference did it make?

Car looks sweet.


I prefer the hozo's, though. I like the way both look .... but the hozo's belong on our cars.

Grady said it best!!!!

I'll keep my 94-95 taisl just beacause it means I am packing some PUSHRODS....

I looked specifically for an 88-95 vert so I could have a 5.0.... Be proud of your heritage...

Horizontal tail lights make the back of our cars look FAT. And when you put the 315s on back there... it just looks plain old scary. The vertical lights would detract from the intimidation factor, IMO.

I neeeed a chin spoiler!

I hate the horizontals, and mine were all faded, so the first thing I did was get the 96-98's

I used to like the verticals better, but quite honestly...I think the horizontals are better now.

One thing I do hate is the stock side badges on our cars. That cursive written "GT" just looks so weak. "5.0" looks so much meaner.
