NSS means "no such street"

Lol, it says "No suck street" on the yellow label.

Are you absolutely sure? Some angles you can't see it at all.
I left the protective plastic on after installation and after pulling it off I couldn't see the logo.
I actually had to get to eye level with them to see it.

Side note:
Was it really necessary for another vendor to come in here and jump to conclusions?

I do believe @86_ZN6 is a honest vendor, he has always replied to my PM's and answered any questions. I will say that if you are not a patient person, he might not be the best vendor for you. It's only him dealing with all the sales right?

Sure when everything goes well this guy is great to deal with. Anything goes wrong he turns into a ghost. Just what you want! Honest my ass. Holding on to 90234029343 GB deposits for a botched GB on overpromised parts is not honest

I have placed 3 orders with this guy. and the communication for all 3 was great. he even had to break 1 of my shipments into two separate ship dates and didn't forget to ship the second part even though it was a small item that we had agreed through word of mouth that he would send for me. If you are reading this trying to decide on his store, dont let the other cry baby posts deter you. He DOES answer PMs, emails and text messages. Give him a break, then give him a chance.

Seems like 3 different orders from Cali to Florida would have f'd up by now right? Sorry, hasnt happened with me.

chanomatik · 09-26-2013, 11:40 AM

I will GLADLY take the TOM'S that don't have the stupid logo on the lens. That's why I'm waiting for the Helix clear ones. The logo is actually the worst part of the taillights to me.

Yeah I put a light to them from the side, above and from the front.(same light I use when I 'check the gate' on film productions. I just don't see the logo.

But to be clear, its not like I hate the lights. I think they look great. Make the car look a bit cleaner (imo) I just want to make sure I got what I paid for.

SubaSteve · 09-26-2013, 03:51 PM

Ordered from said vendor. Didn't get shipping info till I asked for it. Still haven't receive the product yet. Shipping info doesn't work. Been about a week and a half.

Upon closer inspection, my passenger side seems to be a bit harder to see.
My guess is that the process in which the logo is applied can be problematic.

BRZ-OwnzJo0 · 09-27-2013, 11:13 AM

I got my refund but it took way longer than it should have. I PM'd him angrily quite a few times before it finally went through. I don't think he's trying to scam anyone.

I got my dot approved TOM'S the next week. :P

I've been out of town but my mechanic came by and grabbed the car. He said its almost invisible but its there and that the right one is easier to see.

Your totally right CircuitJerk and 86_ZN6.

So I am happy to say that all is well here and that I got what I paid for.
My mechanic is going to point them out to them when I grab the car weds. Maybe its time for me to finally get some glasses

In that case, then I offer up an apology to @86_ZN6! I guess I jumped too soon to a conclusion, since you need glasses :P Just kidding. In all honesty, I've seen a few fakes out there and they all are lacking the TOM's logo, so I immediately jumped on that. Like I said, I was wrong, and I'm willing to admit that. I'm glad you got exactly what you were expecting, and that it all worked out in the end

Update on my order:

I finally received mine last Friday. My items were in perfect condition and exactly what I was hoping for.

Just wish the shipping had been faster
