    As I'm stripping down my Maverick, I'm a bit torn about the tail lights on it. Sometimes I like it but then again...so I've been looking at my options and thought I'd see what you guys think. SO, which one do you like best?

    I see it now. Of the ones you have pictured, I would have to say I like the painted Bobcats the best but I have 67 Caprice tail lights on my own car :)

    I voted E .... :D

    Mine have the "rare Canadian option" ... at least that is what Chip Crenshaw and I call it ... no back-up lights....

    If they can't hear me coming, back-up lights aren't going to make a difference .... ;)

    Had to go with B cause you don't have 67 Caprice taillights... I have the 67 Caprice taillights on my 70 Grabber....

    The Caprice lights do look alot nicer than the Bobcats.I think if i had a Bobcat i would do a Pinto light conversion ;)...

    Comet tails are my favorite with stock mav lights a close 2nd.
    I think the tail panel covered entirely in lights kills the look, but thats just my opinion.
