I think that if I was going to preorder something, I'd want an actual picture of the item I was ordering.


I also think that $900 CRAZY! Valenti Jewel Tails are $600 a pair; which is already outrageous IMO! The new lights cost 50% more and, from what I can tell from the pic of the Mazda, Look worse.


Valenti Jewel tail lights.

Miata included, not more than $100.

Who knows what any 86 version would actually look like, that's the worst ever prototype pic...

I agree with all of your responses. The Jewels are nice looking, but $600 for a pair of taillights sounds beyond good sense.

And am I missing something, or is showing a pic of completely different merchandise on a different make of car with the badge scribbled out, at a price which represents 3% of the entire vehicle, beyond obscene?

If you are talking value, it is way more than the car..

Wait, are you actually manufacturing and selling these? And why does the Mazda badge have a squiggly line over it?

Honest opinion: Yeah, this is terribad. Lights look too god-awfully cheap to be legit Valentis, yet we can pre-order these for $899? Assuming this is also being sold for the FR-S and BRZ, I could get two sets of legit Valentis for my car and still have some money left over. Nope.

Pretty sure that is just an orange line photoshopped on top of some LEDs.
Not sure if OP means he ordered them on his PP or if he is asking people if they want to order them. Either way the whole thing reeks of scam.


Ahhh there we go. Upper left side of the pic. Now it all makes sense. Of course the link is no good.

Lol it was a joke my friends. Sorry for trolling I thought the horrible photoshop and squiggly line over the Mazda sign would give it away, this is a pic of an old Miata and those are actually nearly what the lights look like.
