Are these clear tails the same?

Ebay vs. Japan pics
I forgot to take pics of the backs of the housings, but the Ebay housings are black and the Japan Yahoo auction ones are light grey (like in the last pic).

It looks like those pictures from Yahoo japan have a chrome trim around the clear portion of the light, which the other tails don't have. I like it! It looks sharp. I think I'd need to see all of them side by side on a car to see how the chrome strip looks though.

As TJW98LS mentioned, you can see the difference in quality of the Ebay tails. The silver painted strip has started to crack and chip off from the inside of the tail light. It's a common flaw I've noticed in every set of RCR tail lights bought in the states and used for more than a year. Lighting is the same, and both are made in Taiwan. Price depends on how much you can win them for through Japan auctions...shouldn't go higher than 200 for used ones, unless they're the Junction Produce ones.
No prob, it's the least I could do for your contributions to this forum.

I had just got back from watching the new Harry Potter flick when I posted my previous reply.
Basically, you tell Robert what your maximum bid is, and he bids accordingly until the auction is won. The item is then shipped to him and from him out to you. None of the sellers will ship directly to you or internationally.
