I chose that headlight housing for the HID kit because of the projector lens aspect as well as price. You can get the housings themselves for fairly cheap, but the HID part of the kit is what will make all the difference. The price of the kits I'll be selling will also cover a lifetime warranty on ballasts, etc.

The HIDs are a good idea. I could do without the halo thing though. i have the same style housing for an H4 bulb. Or at least it appears to be the same style. The middle is the part besides the ballast we would be purchasing I'm assuming. Then removing the reflector and the HID bulb and reflector would replace it? or maybe I'm confused.

Don't forget the fender flares! Bad ***!

so it seems we are in the same page on the HID idea. The actual "housing" just needs to be H4...so we can use those you pictured..or IPFs or Hellas or whatever.

So the true question is YOUR HID kit..the price and ease of install.

Then overall pricing with everything.

Will you sell the HID kits WITHOUT that housing you pictured? frankly I dont like that style and want to go with the simple Hellas. Please advise!

This is getting good! We need some pricing, shipping and install info!

So basically you are offering the HID kit then?

Wouldn't it be fine to buy those projector housings, or ones that you like, and install any HID kit?

I guess I am a little confused as to what you will be offering.

I guess I am the only person who would take Fender Flares without the rivets showing?

Sorry, but any part easily seen when you pop the bonnet NEEDS to be a work of art if it's going on my car, especially if it's a carb hat sitting right on top of everything screaming for attention. Half-a$$ed is just that...half-a$$ed and no point to it...do it right the first time.

Grooveless tail light lenses, and a grooveless centre garnish made from black plastic or carbon.

BTW. A large plenum style carb hat would be nice for us NA guys, as the traditional "turbo" type carb hats kill flow.
