Hi Joey,
No, the 2006-2007 Monte Headlights are different.
Look @ the two Monte's above on the Right.
I hope that you can send them back & have them replace your covers.
Good Luck.
p.s. You have a Super Beautiful Monte Carlo S.S. 4-Sure

Your headlights would be the same as the 2007 Impala.

GTS was the company that made the most selection of headlight covers. If they don't make them, you might be out of luck. But if you want to simply tint your headlights, you could always go with VHT Nightshades spray tint. You're not supposed to use it on headlights. But if you really want them tinted, that's one way to go. Of course, that will be permanent and there's no going back.

Have you considered some of the aftermarket headlights that some members here have? Like "black" headlights. Only the reflector the bulb uses is silver, the rest of it is black.

That is why i went with the black headlights. Closest thing to blackouts without tinting the lenses.
