Those are the black chrome series altezzas. The seller might be a phony. He should have known they were called black chrome and not gunmetal.

There are no gunmetal altezzas. They are called black chrome, but I guess gunmetal is good too. Each to their own. Maybe they ar called gunmetal now, I have just always heard them called black chrome. Either way u look at it, they're pretty tight.

They aren't too hard to install. The only tool required is a 10mm socket (if my memory serves me correctly). You have to yank the panel off the inside of the trunk to get to the center piece. There are about 10, 10mm nuts holding on each tail light piece. There are little doors that give you access to change your taillight bulbs. This is where you go in to loosen the nuts for the outer pieces. One thing to remember when installin new tailights is that its very easy to drop the nut down into the inside of the trunk panel. So be careful when taking them out. Anything I wasn't very clear on, I will be more than happy to elaborate. emoji

all the names are misleading, there's even someone calling them carbon fiber on eBay. They are actually just a gloss black, i have them.

I coulda swore that Altezza lights were derived from the Japanese-spec Toyota Altezza (AKA Lexus IS300)...So I think the question would be "How much did Lexus make when APC and several other rice-manufacturing companies borrowed their design?".
