What do you think is the best E Body Grille/Lights at night?
« on: October 07, 2012 - 09:02:28 PM »
At night, there you are at a stoplight. You see a E Body staring right at you across the Intersection.
We've all had that happen before. So which one do you like best once the Sun has set?

70' Cuda seems to be a hands down for me.
Curious to what others here think.

I voted 70 Cuda, not because I own one, but they are the coolest looking light setup.

Even though my favorite grill is the 71 cuda I have seen my 72 at night  and the center piece throws a good cue on the car.

It really sticks out just enough.  The 71 and 70 really don't have much definition at night.  Aside from the lights.

70/71 'Cuda tie for me. I guess whether you're going for clean or evil. I went for evil.

I was actually actively trying to find integrated LED turn signal headlamps to mimic the 70's look. Think of these, all 4 lights, flipped so the signal was on top.

Just for illustration purposes, here are '72-'74 lights...

I do like the '70 'Cuda parking lights!!!  :grinyes:
