Apologies for the crap photoshop. I’ve never really liked the rear end on the C8, so I wondered what it would look like with a C6 rear. I kind of love it.
I don’t know, man…it just looks off, tbh. The round headlights worked on the C5 and C6 because the body also had curves and was more round, but with the C8, there are a lot more angles and straight lines, hence, the angled taillights. Just my two cents.

I don’t follow the logic. 458 looks great.

The logic still works, the 458’s features are softer and more rounded than the C8’s almost exclusively angular features.
The rear is the worst part of the C8 design. Way too many crease lines and shapes. I’m not sure this is the solution, but something needs to be done.
I agree. C6 rear is the best. It’s only topped by the C2.
Hell, I’d take the C7 lights. The rear-end of the C8 just kills the look FOR ME. Understand people like it and respect that, but it’s not a good-looking car in person largely due to the rear.
You fixed it. A Corvette needs round tails. Period.
