Can we get the headlight and taillight covers without that pesky white GTO emblem on them? At least, I think that's what that emblem is...

I think that is GTS, the maker of the lenses.

Hey everyone, first off I accidentally gave you guys the wrong link to Addicted Auto Accessories eBay store, so if you are interested in purchasing these the link is http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Addicted-Auto-Accessories. Second, the installation is very simple and doesn't take more than ten minutes. The back tail light pieces are held on with four pieces of Velcro, all you do is peal off the tape and apply them to the lights, this allows for you to take them on and off any time you like. The head light pieces are perfectly fitted to snap into place and they wont move, but to ensure this there is also one piece of Velcro for added support. The rear black out panel is held on with 3M Automotive tape. All of these items are very easy to install and you can go it yourself in a matter of minutes!

Another thing is that we took the tail light and head light covers off of the yellow Camaro for a picture shoot and we peeled the Velcro off of the head lights and tail lights with no problem and no sticky marks or scratch marks were left, which means if you ever want to take them off completely you can do that with ease.

As for the GTS stickers, when we sell them the should be taken off so you wont have to worry about that, however if they are still on the can be removed fairly easy so that should not be a problem.

Finally here are a couple pictures with that blacked out head light covers on an RS, the first one is a picture of the halo's and the second one is a picture of the halo's and HID's.

Feel free to ask me any other questions that you may have!

wow $263 is pretty steep. I have seen these other places for $50 for the headlights, and $50 for the tail lights. I think ill go that rout. Looks good though.

Well unfortunately there was a miss-communication between us and GTS. GTS were the ones who gave US that prices and told us to sell them for that cost. However since we are NOT like those dealers trying to mark up Camaro pricing, our prices are being lowered to immediately to the same prices you have been talking about. We've had hundreds of happy customers already, we are not out here price gouging we are just trying to run a business and keep our customers happy. I would appreciate it if you asked me or e-mailed me next time about the situation instead of immediately bashing our company, because as you can tell now it is not always as simple as it may seem, there were other circumstances. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience. The prices will stay at the lowered price until we hear otherwise from GT Styling.

Brian - at SFX Performance's site for the GT Styling GT0280S headlight covers they have a disclaimer "These are not recommended for use if you have HID lighting option however they are removable when you use your HID lights."

Are these the same model - if so - what's the disclaimer issue?

or maybe you do your company a favor and do some research and save yourself some embarassment. Its your job as the supplier to know these things, not our job as the consumer. Not trying to be harsh, just real, if your going to sell something, you should know everything you possibly can about it. INCLUDING what others are selling it for.

you have a point, however MAP pricing is MAP pricing. A manufacturer sets the pricing, you can't go lower. Others violated it, not us, we followed their procedures. But it's all good. We have lowered prices until GT Styling raises them.

I see where it says this on their website, however, we installed these on both our yellow SS/RS in the shop and we out them on Guillermo's (Camaro5 user tribone) SS as well. And as you can tell from the pictures i posted they are a perfect fit and both the Halo's and HID's shine through with no problem at all considering we took that picture during the day, which means at night they will look even better. I have no idea why it says this but it should not be a problem. If this is a serious concern of yours I would suggest contacting GT Styling themselves and asking why they have made this disclaimer.

Thanks Brian - as always you're very responsive. I've messaged GTS (tough to find but I found them) with why there's a disclaimer for using their covers with HIDs - I'll post their response. Not a serious issue - just curious.

Cool glad to hear it, I too am curious as to why they say this.
