Hi all, I'm looking at some Bentley Continental gt around 2008 and 2009 and I noticed something. Unless my eyes are deceiving, it seems some Continentals had a tail light that was slightly smaller (not as high) as I see in other Continentals. Were there multiple taillight size options on these vehicles around this time. Seems like a few are a bit shorter and have a more modern look. I don't think it was a speed only option as I've seen it on regular Continentals too I think.

I attached a few pics to show the difference of what I mean. Any opinions are appreciated

 

Hello @newporsche ,
I believe that your eyes are deceiving you.
The tail lights are the same in height on the 1st generation GT, the only difference in the taillights, is the tinted ones on the Supersports, and the tint is the only difference.

I see no difference in your pictures, only that the angle of the pictures taken is different, therefore giving you that illusion.

Edit: note added, different years of the first generation taillight may have different electronics on board, but the overall dimensions are the same.

Hi there, thanks for reply. I've seen pics with same angle and the tail lights go higher than the b emblem where others it's not as high

 

Scuderia shows only one style for Gen 1 with part numbers for left and right. A new tail light is only $3200!

 

Thanks guys guess it was just the angle of the pictures!
