Theres some garnishes I did and the paint pen I used
i ordered one (rare spares) gets in tomorrow (Fri.) he reckons its "new old stock" from GM... but i reckon he is pulling himself... i dont care either way, will post pics so you guys can scrutinise etc.
Theres no way they're New old stock. Rare spares are shocking for lying about that stuff, but if you take a good look at the stuff they sell, you can soon tell what is and isn't genuine.
They look good for the money though, don't get me wrong and they're cheap, as long as you add the lines they missed you can't go wrong. Some guy sold a couple on ebay already, passing them off as NOS but chose his words carefully. The pics were more detailed and they definitely ain't the real deal. Didn't stop him from getting $800 from some poor muppet though. He dropped the price to $400 by the time the second one sold.
I wonder what kind of feedback he got...

That's a good way of telling if they're selling genuine stuff, look at the price. They aren't stupid, they're well aware if it isn't available elsewhere
i knew he was lying through his teeth, as i said before, im not fussed if its not genuine... and the Berlina garnish would want to be genuine for that price... close enoughs good enough for now... its not a show car so i could care less
I had a look at one of these today
It comes in kit form and the actual garnish itself does look the part! Perfect VK berlina/walky etc style replacement. The sticker looks good but doesn't have the shiny finish it should have, but may come up with some plastic polish, and the badge is the usual die-cast rare spares replica.
I think I'll get one just to have a new black garnish
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
