Edit to reflect price reduction: These are brand new Keith Goodyear clear (undecorated) Fiero GT fastback tail light lenses. We had ordered multiple sets but the decoration lines were poor. So, we got replacements in clear with the stencils to properly mask the black (or you could choose a custom decoration). Lenses have never been unwrapped and only unboxed to take pics for this ad. $550 shipped to lower 48.

One hell of a good price. Someone better snag these quick. Perfect option for someone who wants to customize the text.

Good afternoon, everyone. Ive had lots of messages on FB about these, but really only from people that dont know what they are. About to toss em in the barn and save em for a rainy day. I figuged they would sell fast. Any thoughts on why there seems to be no interest?

For me it's because I don't even have taillights yet QQ

Given that fact I am a huge proponent of you sticking them in the barn. Hide them until I need them; it's a great idea

My thought; I believe that the majority of PFF members want Keith Goodyear's reproduction as the 'original' look.....

I think there is this crazy notion that flooding the market with 1000 taillights would increase the price for taillights. Reminds me of the tulip bubble the prices people were paying for these. Adding aftermarket lenses should decrease the price not increase them, yet folks bought these for $400 and think they are worth $1000-$1500 now.

I think all members know that some Fiero parts are 'rarer' than others........

Like Fastback OEM Quarter Windows, '88 Rear Brake Calipers, '88 Engine Cradles and yes, '86-'88 GT Tail Lamp/Light Assemblies or Leneses

Keith Goodyear’s GT reproduction lenses are/were the BEST option for cracked, damaged or missing parts.

GT tail lights by jjd2296 (Feb 2024) were SOLD at $1,200 Canadia in FOUR HOURS from the post in 'The Mall'....

SOLD May at $600 - clear (undecorated)
https://www.ebay.com/itm/326104521145?

SOLD May at $1,500 - the 'original' look
https://www.ebay.com/itm/166729263877?

Try to find ORIGINAL Factory/OEM parts....I did and I was lucky to get brand-new GM parts which they costed less than the recent reproduction prices.....

Like everything else price is always based upon supply and demand. Keith Goodyear's Fiero GT taillight lenses were expensive as the cost of the tooling had to be amortized in the price plus GM wanted a cut. Must say Keith did a great job. I took a more cost effective option and went with a C4 Corvette panel. Now my lenses cost $5.95 ea. so I keep an extra set of 4.
IMO a tinted set of GT lenses without the Pontiac name would make a good continuation product but for $200 each.

I don't want to hijack this thread, but is there a build thread for this?

Just wanted to bump this up. How about 550 shipped in lower 48. We are cleaning house and this is among the last of the "extras" taking up space.
