That is a big difference. I was on another thread and someone was referring to these, I think DetMich1. The ones that are selling look real cheap compared to the JP ones. I wouldnt waste my money trying to save a few hundred dollars if the look is that bad. Is this person a member here on CL?

Yea, I do see a difference. However, if you squint your eyes really hard they do look the same. The good ol' JP tail- often immitated, but never duplicated.

Why not just heat up your tail lights at around 300 F for no more then 10 mins and take them apart?. I did that with 2 different lexus headlights worked like a charm.

If those tail lights were about 400 bucks. I would get it. Anything near the asking price of the auction, i would just get the real JP's.


I wonder does he even know the difference between the JP and the Kazz tail lights.

It is a lot of money but when you have run out of mods to do you have to spend the money somewhere right? I think they are the nicest looking taillights for the GS by FAR but I cant justify spending that kind of money right now. Maybe one day though

Default PICTURES John's

The worst part about the auction is he uses a JP car (John's) as a picture. Man I would be pissed if someone used a picture of my car to sell fake stuff

Exclamation Stay Away!!!!!!!!!!

I would not deal with this idiot guys. If you get tails get the real stuff. And if I were John at JP, I would be PISSED if I found out this moron used a picture of my car to sell the garbage he has.
