Are those really the JP tails? Maybe it is just the angle and reflection, but the clear part looks so silvery. When I saw the pic, I was wondering what DIY he did.

Hey Panda, I am not insinuating that these are not the JP tails and that you can't afford them. They just look different and I have seen two sets in person. JP or not, they look good. Congrats.

Looks like you simply put chrome stickers/film/tint over the lower part of the tailight. I am guessing it is like a mirror tint type of film so that when you signal you can see it clearly..
They look nice none the less! They may be JP lights, but from the angle they don't look like JP's.. Please correct me if I am wrong!
