Default Are these lights fugly or what?

Ok, so I don't mean to beat up on anyone, we all have our own tastes. I was browsing our local craigslist to see if any goodies were available. I came across an ad for "05-09 GT parts".... Saw these lights and I thought wow that's terrible (hope this guys not on this forum or thinks I'm talking trash). They are definitely unique.

Looks better on different colored cars, it's the cervinis retro lights. Of the installed sets I've seen , it doesn't seem like any are quite lined up right.

Yes, unique. I can go both ways about them; they're sort of cool looking yet I think they lose the original, more retro look. I don't find them offensive but not sure I give a BIG thumbs up either.

The split induced by the trunk lid fuggs everything up for me.

There are definitely worse tail light choices available lol. I've seen these in person and wasn't much of a fan, but they aren't too bad.

It looks much better with the full Cervini body kit.

The first Chargers, 66-67 had the full across taillights. Thunderbirds of 77-79's also.
