To have real CF tail lights be prepared to shell out some money.

and carbon fiber doesn't pass light very well (it would be similar to shining light through a corvette fender and yes I know that's fiberglass same basic thing)

lol out of all the things to shine light through, you think of a corvette fender. It'd be cool to have altezza lights where the like... part that surrounds the bulbs and such was carbon fiber.

well teh vette is fiberglass carbon fiber is a form of fiberglass (the stuff you buy is just fiberglass with a grey cloth to keep cost down carbon cloth is expensive and hard to work with)

I understood you meant the covers, and not the actual taillights. I don't think that they'd shine through as well as regular smoked.

Werd, I guess because the answer was so blatantly obvious we all figured someone else already answered.

its amazing how typing in "carbon fiber tail light covers for a camaro" gives you thousands of results, and the first link results in this image:

it seems as though the rksport carbon fiber tails would be what you want, then... from the looks of it, they let more light through. Your best bet would be the nightshades, but like ya said ya dun feel like doin it, so these carbon fibers look like your only other option.
