Testing interest in Aero headlights...

Whats up guys. I was wondering if there is a high enough demand for non-popup lights for me to start fabricating and selling them. Right now i can make them for 1st gens, and i am working on the 2nd gen setup. I would sell these as complete kits or as housing alone making the customer able to chose his/her own light combination and keep costs down. Prices would probably be around $400 set with lights ready to install and plug in & $250 for just bolt in housings. At those prices i beat every other manufacturer. Think its worth a go?

Do you have any pics or drawings of your concept/design? CP racing already makes a complete kit for the FB.

Might be interested. Depends on what they look like, I guess.
I was thinking of trying to make a set myself with a ram air/CAI hole on the right side headlight.
