07 SS/SC cars are the only ones that I've seen with the orange gone. I have an 07 SS sedan and it came with the orange.

SOME 07s have the orange lens as well.

i almost wonder if it was a different supplier, because if you look, the chrome is a slightly different shade.

my guess is, they used the orange until they ran out, then back to the clear

Interestingly enough, this ad shows a 2005 SS-SC without the orange bowls...



Probably photoshopped out by marketing though.

You sure that's not just the tint? SS/SC's have smoked headlights, all others have clear.
