October 19, 201311 yr comment_434040 I too have ordered and received a set from JDM. They are as Guy said "perfect". I am very happy with them. They are now a realization we have been wanting and waiting on for YEARS!That being said, there are important difference which can be pointed out between these offerings.The photos above illustrate the extreme authenticity Randalla has provided. The JDM version does not have the elongated center post, does not have the L and R mold markings as original and does not come ready to install with push nuts as original, nor are there installation instructions provided.While I am very happy with my purchase from JDM I will certainly be ordering from Randella as well.They simply could not be done better, IMHO!Thank You JDM and Thank You Randalla for such great work on this important restoration piece you have made available!Jim D."Zup" Edited October 19, 201311 yr by Zup Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/39028-240z-chrome-taillamp-strips/?&page=5#findComment-434040 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 19, 201311 yr comment_434063 Jim, You are right regarding the "extreme authenticity" that Randy has achieved with his tail light strips. I have had his prototypes in my possession for a few days and can attest to the exact replication of the OEM parts, as well as the detail and finish on his product. As you may know, I, too, have been working on reproducing tail light strips for the 240z. However, I have since abandoned that particular project as my supplier's interpretation of "exact replication" resulted in a product that just didn't meet the standards of authenticity that Randy has achieved with his offering. (who would ever thought that the word "exact" is a relative term???? ) Anyway, kudos to Randy for producing such a high quality reproduction of a part that so many of us have been needing for years:) Mike Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/39028-240z-chrome-taillamp-strips/?&page=5#findComment-434063 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 19, 201311 yr comment_434084 Zup, small point, but wanted to let you know how painstakingly my focus on quality was. You may or may not know that the three fastening pins for each bar are two different sizes and as a result so are the push nuts which are included. The two nut sizes are just 1/16" different but I wanted to be sure they were right. Thanks for recognizing the subtleties.
