No More C-West Lights

Well from what MotoRex know C-West has discontinued their sleek light kit for the time being.

The company that makes the lexan covers for the lights went bankrupt in Japan. So untill C-West finds a new source anyone who wants the lights are SOL

Well, I never liked the C-West light kit, but I hate seeing product discontinued for the car regardless.

The C-West kits have not been discontinued. If you're looking for one, send me an e-mail and I'll tell you where to find them.

Everyone can get one... Rotaryextreme.com sells all the orginal RE stuff and he makes a CF replica.. However, I've only seen CF on the RE kit that has the intake hole on it.. HAven't seen an actual RE CF sleek headlight kit with out the intake hole... any wayz... if you want sleek for cheaper rotartyextreme is the way to go.

You can still find some Jim but at this moment no more are being produced. This comes directly from MotoRex.

It was my understanding that only the carbon fiber version was "on hold" until they found a new manufacturer. I know that five new kits were just ordered by another vendor and they came in this week.

No, I'll vouch for RotaryKnight as well, Ken from motorex recived his last shipment the end of last month and will not be recieving anymore, Unfortunatly. But some people might still have some in stock, however, no more will be produced unless they find someone else to make thier covers.

Oh I forgot to mention they got in about 10, and I got one last week and if they sent out 5 to that other vendor you mentioned, then that leaves about 4 remaining somewhere. All I know is that there are going to be alot of vendors pissed that they didnt recieve their orders .

Yea they are trying Jason. When i was there couple days ago they got the brackets in for the light kits. Looked like enough for about 5-6 kits. Not really sure though what C-West is going to do since it is the Lexan covers that they no longer have available to them.
