I also want to get some 06/07 tail lights for my monte, and the stock headlights back in, I think it'll look much cleaner what do y'all think?

Looks great! I debated 20's when I got my rims, but decided to go with 18's.
Will have to get new ones eventually anyways.

As far as the tail lights, these are different on the 06/07.

I have the IPCW Bermuda black led tail lights on mine, they are designed to fit a 6th gen, and the 7th gen has a little wider inside corner. It's not much, but there is a little gap there, so they may be too big for yours.

Have you considered these?
IPCW® - Ruby Red LED Tail Lights - 2006 Chevy Monte Carlo IPCW LED Tail Lights - IPCW LEDT-348CR


Of course more expensive than a stock set of 06/07, but unless I am mistaken I don't think they will fit right, and they ofc have different colors, but if you are going for the red accent, then there ya go :P

Frank, I really like your headlights on the white monte.

And just fyi, the 06/07 tails do work, they aren't the exact shape of the 2000-2005 but they have been proven to work

Personally, I'm not a fan of the 06/07 tail lights. But everyone has different tastes/opinions. But, I can also be subject to change my mind (again, I thought 20's might be a bit big, but these look awesome)!

I actually like the look of those black bezel headlights you currently have on the car. I wasn't really a big fan of the 06-07 tail lights until I bought my 06. I actually prefer them now. I see your biggest issue being how the 06-07 tail light aligns with the 00-05 bumper. The 00-05 tail light bubbles out more and the bumper on them follows that. I think the 06-07's would work on your car nicely though. I've seen this a few times, mostly the other way around, with the 00-05 tail lights on 06-07 Montes.

The 20's look nice on there too.
