Default 2nd Gen Camaro Tail lights, Fesler vs. Marquez

I've looked at both and am wanting to make a purchase. Both appear to be very well made and of good quality. Anyone have a preference between the two and why?

Also wondering if the lens is glued on or easy to remove? I pm'd Fesler about theirs but haven't received a response as of yet. Hoping soon or if someone else can chime in I can order a bit quicker. I'm wondering cause i'm thinking about ordering the raw finish and if I don't like it to be able to take it apart and polish it. I don't know if Marquez offers a raw finish.....

Marquez offers a back up light option in it's lense. Not sure if Fesler's does. Both look like nice pieces.

We do offer them raw or polished and the lens is glued in and can be removed if you do it carefully. If you order the raw and are very carefull with them on testing them out and dont like them send them back and we will change them out to the polished set. The finish really depends on the paint and style you are going for on your car. People like them both so its up to you. We have a new lens with back up that will be out very soon if you are waiting on that. We do also have all of the finishes in stock and if not its just a day or two out. We just got our new machine up and going so productions are picking way up.

Both are great quality.
But sometimes you need to look past the product.
One manufacturer stocks them and say he's willing to exchange them if you dont like them.
The other, doesnt stock them and is extrememly hard to get in touch with.

Just looking at the photos of the Marquez part, I don't see their name on front of the part. As for getting them in raw finish, just email Marquez designs and I am sure they can sell them to you raw. I recently got Marquez new rear hinges and they are sweet.

You dont see that when installed so does it really matter?
