Hard luck. I damaged one of mine a couple of years ago. A new one from Bauer Millett was £100+

you could by a US spec rear clip, ship it from USA, get it sprayed your colour and then have it fitted.......but that is likely to cost you more than £100 smile

Thanks guys, and yep would like to get rid of them and put one down nearer the exhaust but, the 2 big ugly holes left would need a fair bit of work!

If I had them fugly things on my 'vette, I would jump at the chance and pull the other one out.
Then right down to a bodyshop and get the holes filled in an painted.
Good riddance to them I say.

Good thing about C5's being fast cars - someone has undoubtedly crashed a Euro spec one. Have you tried some of the Corvette dealers in the UK, or scam-bay?

Fran, yep tried a couple of breakers that have vettes in, but they wont sell the fog lights on their own, just the entire rear section!

Hmm, that's not very convenient of them. I guess if they had one that had one rear corner smashed it might be possible to get one. Only other possibility - V10 BAT on here made some lights for the back of his car, don't know if there's an option there, but I expect there'd be a lot of time there and not a big cost saving by the time you've finished. Sticker over it for the moment? One of the Corvette racing numbers or a GB sticker???

Same place as mine, between the exhausts. Removed it last Saturday and what an improvement. Must admit the lights installed in the rear bumpers are horrible.
