Valenti Revo SB-2 (Smoked)

Entertaining the idea of selling my smoked Valenti Revo (SB-2). Had them for about 7 months and waited a similar amount of time to receive them.

Still by far my favorite tail light on the 86, especially with the sequential feature, but I'm really digging the ones on my new Series.Yellow for the time being.

Unfortunately the passenger side have some micro cracks along the edge of the housing. Not very visible when mounted, but they are there.

SOLD

Any water intrusion/condensation issues with the micro cracks? Can't really see the severity while mounted, I would ask for better picture but looks like you have them uninstalled. So, scale 1-10 how noticeable is it while they're mounted?

----- Disclaimer -----

I noticed some water build up inside the light after a heavy rainstorm recently. What is more perplexing is that after I removed the light and let it dry, I ran water directly onto the light housing and water could not get in. My theory is that air is somehow getting through the housing and condensing, perhaps through the seals (which look good) or the micro cracks.

Unfortunately I am too busy to tackle this problem, so I'm lowering the price to $400 OBO due to this discovery.
