Steve has had those in the works for a while. The price wasnt what he was expecting though. Not as clean as the JP tho.

they look pretty good, i think the difference is the clear on the jp is more of a euro clear where the kazz is a regular clear. i mean that the JP clear is like glass you can see through it where as the kazz is a clear like when you strip the 98 tails of their middle orange plastic and it clear non see through..

Not for 1300 you can get JP for like 1100 but the ways things are looking with JP we might not have a USA vendor but who knows.

The clear on the lights just doesn't look right for me. And the $$$$ you might as well just get the JP ones.

He did not make JP clones. He put tint film on the orange to give it a different look. He had some issues with turn signal visibility so he took the film off.
