Default Lexus HCMotionz Taillights

Bought "brand new" HCMotionz taillights off a guy from a Lexus Facebook group and noticed the passenger side reverse light is halfway lit up when I turn on low beams. Not sure if it's just a faulty set of taillights or if I straight up got scammed... I will also say the center bar was cracked in the middle and when I told him about it he said he's never touched it but only "looked" at the taillights and has ghosted me so... lmk if I could still save these (left side is what it is suppose to look like off, right side is partially on)

This is a perfect example of why I distrust anything non-OEM, by default. I am sure there are exceptions to the rule, but still.
