C-west headlight cover replacement

I have the C-west headlight kit on my car and just last week noticed a crack in the passenger side cover. I already searched for any info on replacements, but it seems MOTOREX is the only company that sells them individually.

I called them up and they only sell them in pairs and quoted me $500 for them. So, does anyone know another place I could purchase a single cover from? Thanks

Hey dude,

can you let me know how ya get on. i need one too in my passanger side (which is your drivers side). They are even harder to come by in the UK. Got a price from www.rx7.com who said, quote "I can special order them if you need one or a pair. They are $170.00 each. "

Yes, ImportFan has been advertising them for a long time now for $50 a lens.

Since this is the most unique part of a sleek kit, I always thought that one of the fabricators on the forum would make a housing with a couple fog light holes and sell it for a few $hundred. Then ImportFan could provide the lens.

Thanks for the help guys. I spoke to both RX7.com as well as the people at Importfan.com and both said it'll be atleast 2-3 weeks before they get any shipment in. So,if anyone else knows of shops selling these covers, please let me know.

^^ you would think that he would be more stocked now that he found a place that has them for $50 bucks each instead of $500 for both.
