Last year I ran into a guy who had just finished restoring a 65 GTO. He told me that he purchased the tail panel from The Parts Place and was very unhappy with the quality. To be fair his car was backed into a tight one car garage and I didn't see the panel. I have the cast bezels from PG classics and they are very nice. I wish that they would make a tail panel that is just as nice.

Thanks to all for the information.

Mine are horrible, but it just cost so much to have the tail panel and tail light bezels re-chromed that I thought I would see the quality of The Parts Place item.

If I am going to spend close to $700.00 for a so-so piece, I was might as well spend a couple hundred more and have mine redone.

I guess I will take my pieces off the car ans send them to Paul's Chrome and get an estimate on what it will cost me to have them redone.

Thanks,
Mark
