Does anyone else have one? I'm not 100% happy with the fit of it. It's not contoured to the vehicle. I'm looking for ways to but a bit more of a bend in it. In the middle it's flush with the decklid/bumper but at the ends it sticks out about 3/4" mostly at the bottom. I'll try to get some better pictures this weekend if the weather clears up. For now iPhone pictures will have to do.

If it will make you feel better I will take it off your hands to help you sleep better at night. ........I wish I could find this setup for my black car. But they have gone the way of the mammoth...Someone needs to make these again.. Please!!!!

The tailights have been around for a number of years. I find it hard to believe that they are out of curve or out of whack.

If its an older fiberglass part, and it sits on a shelf with a contour, it'll take the contour of the shelf (flat)

------------------

With any custom fiberglass part you have to work it to get the fit. I have worked with many panels and have spent countless hours working with them to get the fit you want. The pics look okay to me. My opinion is if you don't like it either work it or get rid of it.I remember pics of this when they were selling them and the fit was not perfect either, but it was a good start for the notchback!

This isn't on a car, but it looks pretty flat to me... If there is any curvature there it's very little. (I know the camera angle is throwing it off). Also look how wavy it is.



Although here is one that looks like it has a good deal of curvature in it.



I think however the post above speaking on how fiberglass can change shape is very true and may be what has happened. If the piece has just been sitting on a shelf - even with it sitting upright - it can begin to lose curvature. I've seen a lot of body kit items lose their shape due to sitting for years on shelves or floors. One thing that makes me cringe is when I see replica kit car bodies hanging from garage ceilings. I would imagine eventually that begins to distort the shape of the fiberglass slightly, compounding work.

That's a picture of the one on my car before I purchased it. It's looking better to me. I have a couple ideas on how to make it more of an even fit. Maybe it will get some shape back after being on the car a while.

IMO, still the nicest looking light panel for notchbacks ever made. A while back the tooling for all of the Driven Visions parts was sold to another company but the panels have not been put back on the market so far.
The Al Lindsay GT tail light panel using the oval Corvette lights is also no longer available. Two good looking pieces that I wish would come back.

The side shots are very helpful. It looks like the panel needs to "stand up" a bit more. The side profile should follow the back edge of the fender. This would also bring the center top edge out to follow the curve of the lower edge of the deck lid.

You have a very nice car.

Thanks! Maybe it will adjust as its on the car.
