They look great. If you wanna make 'em SVO/Cobra replicas though you'd want to snip the 2nd strip from the bottom right as it goes around the corner of the light

looks like your half way to having cheese grators..

not even close.
 
That pic can be seen on this page: http://www.soniccherry.com/mmshoot.html - I dunno what the filename is so just go there and find it if you want.

Did you plan on touching up the scuffed black paint on the trim? that'd make it look great. And like you said, polishing compound to brighten up the lenses will make them look great if you do it right. Before aftermarket companies started selling new Cobra replicas, I refurbished old GT/LX lenses to be replicas and sold them. Always came out great!
 
very nice job!!

i was gonna pick up a set at the fall super swap this past weekend in cbus and stripe em...but they were pretty scratched up. I guess the early birds get the good ones...

thats were i got these. 25 for the set. the right tail light was mint a nick here and there but only up close you could tell. the left has a huge crack but the on on my stang right now is mint. nonthing at all is wrong with it. but for 25 bucks why not?

i went on Sunday and picked this up. i also picked up a gt gauges bezel for 5 bucks.
