I met a guy recently who finished the restoration of a 65 GTO. He used one of those rear panels from the Parts Place. While I didn't see the car he said he was disappointed with the quality and was sorry he purchased it. He said if he had known he would have sent out his original for rechroming. I wish the same company that makes the tail light bezels would step up and produce the tail panel. Their stuff is good quality and I'm sure they would sell a lot of them.
