Come on move the reverse lights.

Sorry to start a new thread about the back of this car. But the reverse lights in plain sight in the middle of the bumper really have to be moved. How about down in the panel where the exhaust comes thru or make a new license plate area with the lights built in. I love the rest of the car I would just like to see more attention to detail to the rear-end.

You want to make sure people can see them and know you are reversing. Centering them around the plate they are not as visible. I think they are fine where they are at.

I agree with the OP. They are the one thing that detracts from the looks of this car. Back up lights are a lot brighter than license plate lights. If they come on people will know it. The Sky has a single light down low. You can't mistake it.

Am I the only person who likes them for their resemblance to the first gen RS reverse lights?

GM is not going to burn money changing the position of the reverse lights after only one model year.

You're going to have to either wait until the current product cycle ends or GM schedules the Camaro for an MCE.
