they're usually on ebay every once in a while, typically ship from thailand or other foreign locations. I got "Jazz" door sill plates from a seller who had the tail light covers. Also saw a pair of the Depo JDM Projector headlight housings...
Never know what you might find if you look hard enough - the covers come as a black paintable plastic or "carbon fiber" (not sure if it's really CF).
Other than that I don't know any online retailers for this. I'm sure someday a company like AVS or Lund will make them. Maybe.

well i went by koolkev's procedure for painting my fog light covers that he wrote up for interior trim and it turned out great. i would doubt that those 'chrome' covers on ebay are actually metal, most likely plastic with that shiny coating over it. either way said it with a really superfine grit sand paper, prime then base color coat then clear coat. if it turns out to really be plastic just use adhesion promoter as the primer.

the covers that you had in those top links are really nice though, and the tail cover you found is nicer than the ebay one

yea I noticed the chrome one is different. I found that the taillight covers belong to a guy named xtreme on the boards from thailand and the covers are from the Jazz Xtreme edition or something. Maybe I can order them from thailand somehow if he gets back to me.

nice, i've been trying to find these for a while, these look good and are a great alternative to aftermarket tailights. I can't seem to find the price though.

Did you check out the grills? Is it Jazz or is it FIT? The site looks legit. Has anyone ordered?
