c-west headlight conversion, $620?!
 
Check this out... I was just browsing around and found this site that makes a c-west headlight conversion replica and sells for $620. Just thought I'd spread the find to everyone on here...

PS, sorry if this is a repost.

these are on ebay also. Look good on the car.

spoolin93r1 04-24-04 01:22 PM

you also have to spend like $400 extra to get the catz foglights that go in them. they neglect to tell you that. those are actually just the importfan.com ones, being resold under a different name

POM HB 04-24-04 01:25 PM

Should we set up a group buy and get the darn things down to ....say....$550?

angryblack 04-24-04 04:19 PM

I just called RACEONUSA and spoke to George. He stated that the kit does come with the four Catz foglights and is from the same mold as the C-West kit that sells for $1200+. I was told that he would knock off $20.00 if we could buy 10 sets. Importfan had the knockoffs on back order for at least 6 months!He said that he has a bunch of sets coming in wednesday but he aint getting my money until he says that he has them in stock. Anyone down for picking up a great set of knockoffs at half the price?

I will have to give them a call in the near future.

I'm already involved on two other GB's and combined with other car bills so I can't afford them right now. ;(

bladz311 04-25-04 01:29 AM

I already have a set of East Bear's conversion, or I would be in that group buy. I just thought I'd pass on that price.

TracyRX7 04-25-04 01:34 AM

Anyone know what the weight difference is in the stock headlights vs. the C-Wests? Counting the motor you can remove as well.

I'm interested in doing this but not until probably September. New FD and too many things to work on :D (my priorities are rubber->metal or silicon, simplify engine compartment (a whole bunch of stuff and where the light conversion comes in), PFC).

Does anyone have a pic of them on a decent looking car, I have been waiting on Chucks new kit, but it is taking to damn long.

Gap kinda looks big

merc 93 04-25-04 01:50 AM

Why would anyone put that damn print on their car much less a pic of it? What a fugly car with the print running accross the car and the hood and front dam being colored grey to match the print.

This car might look good if they paid for their own site which allowed the whole car to be red?

ooEfiniRx7oo 04-25-04 02:20 AM

wonder if the moisture is going to smog up the inner cover and turn it all nappy looking over time?

skunks 04-25-04 03:00 AM

looks good for the price

I would be interested, but how much do they want for shipping. Probably some crazy price.

huh? :confused: What print? You don't mean the import fan print do you?

rdavidsrx7 04-25-04 12:28 PM

actually shipping was reasonable from that site unlike the ebay sites which were ridiculously priced for shipping.

$20 off for 10? Thats all?

BRADYMAHONEY 04-25-04 12:33 PM

Can anyone that actually bought a set like this tell us about the quality? I just don't trust knockoff quality. 600 bucks is still alot of money to me.

POM HB 05-08-04 06:54 PM

What's up now?

Assud 05-08-04 07:02 PM

They dont look like they fit to well...maybe its just the pix though.

SNracing 05-08-04 07:27 PM

be careful buying knockoff brand items for your car. fitament can become a serious issue. i bought a dp off ebay, and an easy bolt on job turned into a lot of work and some fabrication.

What size bulbs to the Catz lights use? I'm wondering if my H4 HIDS kit will work...

im with rdavidsrx7, they should be able to do better then that for 10 people.

BRADYMAHONEY 05-09-04 10:30 AM

I just want to know about the quality. Does anyone actually own a set? Thanks,

Brady Mahoney

I don't like the way they look on red cars, that why I have never bought a set.
