I love it! Does the lamp cover come off easily? Just not sure if I want to try to do this myself or have someone else do it for me.

Also, Camero are your bowties matte black or gray?

Like the tail lights...mud flaps...not so much.

My new Camaro · 08-31-2009, 06:11 PM

did mine on a black ss looks awesome . i didnt unbolt anything

My new Camaro · 08-31-2009, 06:16 PM

there is a clip on the top and bottom and sides the best way i found was to use a flat trim tool use gentle preasure and work the clips. do not put much preasure on the clips though. take your tool between the tail light and the ring pry gently while working the clips

The irony is that I originally did the taillights in the design studio 4 years ago! I hated the chrome trim rings from the moment I saw the first sketch and have fought them ever since but when your boss likes something you do it anyway.

It wasn't that bad but it took some time and the tips of my fingers are still sore, but I guess I did it the hard way so I'm not the best person to ask. :-] My bowties are metallic charcoal grey Camaro bowtie stickers that I got on eBay

Cool! Too late for me but for other people's information do you mean insert the flat trim tool between the ring and the lamp from the outside of the car or from the inside somehow?

Did you also have to "cover" up the place where the chrome trim was?

Thanks,
