    I'm the same age (well, 36) and used to love chrome. My first car, a 91 Jeep Wrangler YJ was chrometastic.

    TW taught me to hate chrome.

    It's a moving trend. Like light and dark wood cabinets in your kitchen. Every decade it will change.

    I still like chrome on classic cars and trucks, but it looks tacky AF on modern vehicles.

    So using this logic, or lack thereof, a Chevette is the same as a Corvette. They should be priced similarly, right?

    As you can see, They are available from online Toyota parts dealers for less that your asking price so I would probably say around $175-200 for the pair would not be unreasonable if you do not have any sort of comparable return policy.

    Yep, I’ve seen a couple of those in my day as well. However, that one actually looks like a Pontiac T1000.

    I cracked a tail light on my OR, but I didn’t want to replace just 1 for $150 and have it be more noticeable down the road if it faded at a different pace than the remaining original.

    because of that it was more economical to replace both with Pro knockoffs that were $199 last year:

    Here is my install link that compares the quality of these to what I removed:

    Pulled pricing from Camelback Toyota; widely known across the forum as being trust-worthy and they're at $138/light.
