Anyone have Wade tail light blackouts for the Camaro?

I was wondering, does anyone have Wade tail light blackouts? Do they wrap around the lights and go behind the license plate, or are they the kind with the center piece to hide the license plate? Thanks.

they don't wrap into the license plate at all...they just stick on and they are cut off right before the lights for the license plate..I had to take mine off the other day and all the stupid sticky things came off with them..now I need to find a better way to keep them on.

Doesn't look bad... so do they still kinda wrap around, but don't go all the way back? Or are they cut off right at the end of the tail light and don't wrap around at all?

I almost ordered a set of Wade brand blackouts...

Not sure how they differ from GTS and AVS...

They were on backorder, and I ended up gettin a steal on a set of AutoVentshade blackouts..

jawzforlife1, thanks. do you have any better pics of them than what's on your site? if not, that's ok... they don't look that bad... I think I may go with them... unless someone can point me in the direction of a site that still carries GTS tail light blackouts for an '87 Z28?

thanks man, I appreciate it. this is all getting so complicated... I think i'm just gonna get the edelbrock catback so i have no tips and nothing to worry about... see, here's what the deal was...

i like the hooker cause nobody has been disappointed, everybody likes it, it sounds good, and is inexpensive... but I'm afraid the tips won't be even on both sides, and you can tell this by comparing the tips to the tail lights, so if I got the blackouts you can't tell, and they look even... like how Mark's is, but he says his are even and I've never seen them without the blackouts... it's just I like how his car looks with the blackouts and the quad 3 inch chrome tips... i dunno, i need to stop ranting...

Soo many exhausts, SOO MANY CHOICES, AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH *runs screaming and jumps off cliff*

jordanz28ss, yeah, i noticed, but if you combine the price of the blackouts and the hooker catback, it's about as much as edelbrock, and since the edelbrock doesn't have tips, i wouldn't need the blackouts... i dunno... i'm just weird....

well ok, do what you want....the thing i don't like about the wade's, it that they don't stick under the hatch...they only stick on to the light with these sticky things...now I have to find a new way to put them back on.
I like the hooker...I wish it were louder at idle though..but once you step on it, it sounds like nothing around here!
