Default 67 GT500 style tail lights for S197

So I was looking through 5.0 Magazine or Mustang monthly, or something like that at a book store recently, and I saw that someone was now making that iconic 67 GT500 style tail light for S197s. It advertised that it was for 05-12 models (although they have different tail lights, so not sure how that works) but the picture showed a 05-09 model. I have been searching the web trying to figure out who makes it to do a little more research and I haven't been able to find anything. I thought it was a Cervini product, but their site doesn't have it, so now I'm baffled. Anybody heard of this or know where I could find it? Thanks

It could be cervini's but the tail light conversion they offered never hit the market. They offered it on preorder only but none we made for sale. I have seen a lot of renderings but not an actual conversion.

There was another guy who did something similar but it was a 1 off custom piece.

I saw these in the wild halfway through a 5000 mile road trip a couple of weeks ago. They look awesome. Followed the guy for like 20 miles trying to figure out what was going on, he must have been pretty freaked out. If you're out there, dude, sorry.

They tried to pull off a replica without addressing proportions. The hieght/width/length ratios are wrong.

Close, but no cigar, especially at that price. (near $35k on top of your car)

Wouldn't that be getting close to the new GT350 pricing? I'd much rather have that
