Any one know of a company that makes a nice looking set of 68 tail light bezels? I purchased a set from a vendor and some of the sufaces were scratched and had grind marks in them under the chrome plating.They said made in Taiwan and I wanted to see if you might know where I could pick up a nice set.Thanks.

Try Ground Up or Year One, both sponsors of this site.

It's been my experience with these things, it's better to have them in your hand prior to purchase. You open 5 different boxes, your going to get 5 different qualities.

Or not-some parts are good, some parts are not so good.

Like Greg said, the quality is so spotty on most repro trim items that it's best to see them. Otherwise be sure that you understand the return policies of the company you're dealing with, especially whether you will get your $$ back or just store credit, and who is paying the freight.
You need to check that the black paint stripe and the argent color are correct on the repro bezels too, see pic for an original.
