Tail light trim from LMC?

So my 68 Ranger tailgate had the full moldings but I opted to fill most of the holes and in the end just go with tail light trims and the big (72) center trim. I bought the base model trims but they won't work. They're smaller and don't cover the original holes. I'm going to buy the larger ones meant for tailgates with the trim. Of course these ones are more expensive. I've checked the big 4 vendors and prices from 3 of them range from $60 -$80 each. NPD has them for only $40 each. Obviously I want to buy the lowest price but why so much cheaper? poorer quality? NPD is just a reseller right? I don't mind repop if the quality is decent.

My new grille and many other parts were in the DC boxes or packaging so most likely it's from DC buy before they raise their price.

Ps
Ebay stuff, I have noticed that most all the NOS trim stuff all seem to have some type of scuffing marks on them, guess that why they were not used and left on the shelve.

But have gotten some nice trim stuff once in a while tho.
