Re: Are these real vision amber corners or replicas? (DxHatchback)
uh oh...
I just sold a pair like that, I thought they were real...
Doesn't the vision stamp in the corner tell you its a vision product?
Or can they fake that too?

I just want a new set of stock (mine where cracked)
Also watch out for the fake ones in the vision box. They have the chrome housing with the edge painted black in a white box with red printing and a clear window
Those of you from az and have gone to Versus know what I am talking about.
Most of the fakes also have Vision printed on the lens to.

The ones with the back housings are supposedly more "JDM" than the chrome ones.
If you ask me it's all gay. Just buy the fake ones for like $50. Who the hell is going to be looking 6" from your corners to see if they are Visions anyway...

Well, you decide what you want to do when you receive them...
I sold them in good faith believing they were real, I still think they are real

Re: Are these real vision amber corners or replicas? (EGkwazhimoto)
Ok, I have been reading up on the Vision corners and the big thing seems to be a chrome outline around the light. Looking on ebay at some fakes and real Vision corners I can NOT see a difference between the 2 (besides not having the Vision stamp).
Real Vision corners ($69 shipped):
Fakes (less than $30):
I don't see any chrome
I think the darker amber is from the photo not the actual lens, but I could be wrong

Im pretty sure that the ones that are lighter (the more yellow ones) are the real ones, and the darker ones are fake, the fake ones are more red....

I'm sure there are a few varieties of the phony ones. I had some fakes on my hatch and they had a little chrome around the outside I think. I'll have to check when I get home.

Re: Are these real vision amber corners or replicas? (guyuenvy)
I bought fake ones for $21+shipping off Ebay and they fit fine. No chrome, just black. No Vision stamp, don't care. Would I pay another $100 for real ones? Hell no.

Just what I wanted to hear. But, mine will be $16.99 + shipping 
I could care less about the stamp as long as they fit and match up in color

Re: Are these real vision amber corners or replicas? (Hybrid93Hatch)
I have had a set of Vision corners on my hatch since early last year, ya know, BEFORE all of this JDM stuff got turned into rice. 
Anyhow, the corners that I recieved were purchased off of eBay, and I payed over $100 for them. They have a Vision logo, came in a Vision box, and have Chrome housings. Just so you know, I think Vision made them both ways. The earlier were black housing, and the newer were chrome. The ones I saw at Type 1 were Chrome.
Just my two pennies, here.
