Talking next project.....ftp inserts?

i had an idea for my next project if i can ever find a place to make my hoods without pissing anyone off with the resin smell.......i was thinking of something like those lil projector lamps.....maybe something small enough to fit into the ftp chamber with some other smaller leds......just a driving light design out of glass that would pop right n and i would make them with a lexan cover to get rid of my peeling ftp lense covers....sounds semi rice but i think it would a nice additon and put the things to better use.....similar to jspec FD 99 style but scaled back maybe sell them for 250 a set...any opinions?

All depends on how they look....mabey some photoshop "prototypes"? Sounds good though.

interesting idea... i'm a little skeptical on it just because I like the ftp lenses. But still a neat idea. Would be really unique.

I think if you do, you'll have to bring the price WAY down from $250. and also, I doubt you'll notice any difference in looking out at night because they're so close to the headlights. still, could look interesting though.
