They've been doing this for awhile now....

The Camaro has this since the beginning if you take the HID option.

Nothing to do with the BMW corona rings - its not a double corona and its composed of two halfs - so I don't see any "steeling".
BMW started this trend years ago with the E39 but today many cars have distinctive "night designs".
I think it looks awesome on the Camaro - I would not buy one without HIDs.

I remember when Jeep tried to sue hummer b/c their grill looked too much like jeeps. Im surprised BMW hasnt complained about camaro (maybe since its not a complete circle) and that Audi hasnt complained about Kia using the led strips.

good point,its a shame that some car manufacturers can't create their own personnality it is simpler to copy.

@ BMW owners crying about GM using these lights as well. Get over it & yourself.

Charlotte01 · 04-24-2012, 06:48 AM

A friend of mine put them on his Acura TL and loves them, I'm happy he's happy with them. I on the other hand think they look a little tacky on any car, even some BMW's. Just my .02 I'm a picky person and my opinion is no better than yours or the next guys

Don't let it bother you, just lol a little when you see it.
