Default Custom tail light lenses

I hope this is the right place to post this.

I've had a set of Marquez tail lights for my 67 Nova ordered since last November, and they still have not made them yet. I bought a set of Fesler, and they look bad. The finish is good, but the fit is not even close.

Does anyone know of a place to that customizes tail light lenses. I feel the stock bezels can be used with a one piece lens with hidden screws. Here is what I want, but I cannot get in touch with the guys who made them. RPL Customs made these. A member here, Keith Stephens (N2billet) posted a car with them.

Another car with the same lens.

Any help will be appreciated.

Take a look at Eddie Motorsports too. I don't have a Nova so I couldn't tell you about fit and finish.

Those are the bezels I have. Nice fit and finish. Copy of originals. But now I am looking for a one piece lens. It has been more difficult than I thought to find this.

Oh ok...my bad. I was under the assumption they'd come with the lenses.

Thanks! I talked to them. Very nice to speak with.

I am using BBT Fabrications. He came to me and wanted to take on the small project.
