    Who is doing the work? Is this Andrew? Does that price include shipping? Can you post pictures with better lighting? Are you using OEM taillights?

    Kustom 54 Lighting is doing the work. We have free shipping on all our products and we use aftermarket lights not OEM. Those are the best pics we have right now unfortunately our main camera is out for repair

    Those look nice but I would change the wording from "brand new aftermarket OEM tail lights" to brand new aftermarket

    Are the reverse and turn signal lights converted over to LED or left halogen?

    Halogen, I built them just like my client requested.

    Also using new OEM lights would make these things cost even more, so to keep price lower and availability we use aftermarket.

    Well not everyone can do it or has the time to.

    These take a lot of work, considering after said and done you have to paint and clear coat the taillight lens

    Yea but if I made these for someone I would never charge that much for an aftermarket taillight and also without a retrofit led in it.... Just saying

    There is no need to bash prices. You are more than welcome to make your own set, but the price is on par with others who have offered similar services. Tail lights are a long and tedious process to do well. Pavel does amazing work and has even better customer service. If you want quality retrofitted lights, there isn't anyone better.

    I'm just saying that it's a little high in my opinion, I do see that you have other lights for sale, $800 for retrofit headlights seems reasonable. A lot of work goes into those and it also has projectors in it which cost a bit to purchase. The taillights don't have anything in them but paint... Put an aftermarket reverse light in it and it will be close to reasonable on the pricing.

    It's just my two cents that is all, money is money, someone will buy these, I'll leave it alone now
