price?

 

yah whats a good estimated price range? thanks

 

i'm up for set.

 

Around $500. It's hard to say before even completing the project yet. I'll keep you guys posted.

 

if you can make it around 500 and still go up and down then sign me up!!

 

I'd be interested as well but it will depend on funds at the time

 

i'll take some on the first run. i hope to god you finish these soon.

 

I'll buy a set for approximately 500 bucks

 

I'm interested.

 

under 500????*cross fingers*

 

doesnt one of these threads pop up about once a month

 

No this is different. It's not just an HID kit; I'll be using OEM projectors from expensive luxury or sports cars for this lighting upgrade. This upgrade is comparable to the $900+ HID option offered on cars like the BMW 3-series.

 

I'll give you a word of advice, as a fellow FC owner. As cool of an idea as this is, it's not going to sell. 95% of the people on here saying that they want one, or they will pay one, are either too young to shell out $500, or too poor to do so. Your typical FC owner doesn't have the kind of dough, or the honest desire to spend $500 on headlights. You might sell 3 or 4, but I wouldn't expect anything past that.

 

what he said
I want HIDs, but I can't afford $500 for them
That's why I didnt reply to the thread.
Good luck tho!

 

i cant speak for anyone else but i know that me and my buddy would gladly buy a true hid setup for 500. Thats 2 right there i hope that helps lol

 

Exactly, it's a mod that is not feasible to the majority of FC owners. It's hard to justify $500 for headlights when you can buy housings and Silverstar bulbs for $80 and get just as much light output. I have Euro H4 housings from Corksport with PIAA bulbs mounted in them. I will match my high and low beams against any other car on the road, they are brighter than hell.

Mark my words, see how many of the people saying they want the kit actually pony up the dough when the time comes.

 

I think you people are insane for spending that much on lights for ur fc. unless ur car is freaking imaculate this mod is rather pointless. How much better are these HID's goin' to be compared to the silverstar HID lookalikes that are drop-in replacements for the stockers.

 

ya got PM

 

ok, i kinda drift and i kinda crash in the mountains and ****, and the s4 bumber is strong as ****, and well i have about 600 bucks in my account and **** i was gona buy some rims but , i cant see **** at night, thats why i crash alot, but any ways will hid lights get fucket up? like blow? cuz i know thewy look sick , my friends evos and celicas they look sick, but if the lights go up and down the i will buy some, u yeah im young and broke, but i have some money saved up, and if the lights won't blow ill buy some, but i first want to see how they look like in the fc and if they go down and up, i don't want to bea dic and i appreciate what ur doing but, i don't want to get jack the lil bit of money i have saves up , u know, ok thanks latez

 

^ use periods. You should probably learn to drive better if you crash alot.

 

i hope that was a joke otherwise my *** is hunting you and revoking you rx7 ownership........I'M CLOSE TO YUO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

yea... I actually have those Silverstar headlights and there pretty damn bright. But the true HIDs have that cool blue tint..

 

I go back and fourth on whether or not i'm willing to pay $500.... i really want them, but im such a poor-***. I think they would make the car look more modern.

 

HIDs are 300% brighter than a normal halogen bulb; the difference between the two is unmistakable at night. Also, the parts are designed to last about 10 years, so you will probably never have to replace the bulbs for as long as you own the car.

I ordered the parts...they should arrive sometime next week. Probably next weekend we'll be done.

 

Found two pics of the first FC headlight we made...
