RotaryExtreme sleek headlight kit

Has anyone placed an order for Rotary Extreme's sleek headlight kit? I think it is the best looking sleek kit for the FD. I just got into a minor accident and f***ed up my Re-Amemyia sleek lightkit and was going to order another one until Rotary Extreme emailed me his sleek light kit which he stated will be avaliable by the end of this month which is perfect my car should be done by then These are the pics of his car with the sleek light kit with the carbon fiber housing. Does not look anything like C-west sleek headlight kit which I think is the ugliest sleek kit for the FD

Here is the link

Those lights are very nice! Do they have HID capability? How much is chuck charging? Sorry about your car man...any other major damage besides the lights? I'd be curious to see what other goodies chuck comes up with in the future

My car needs a new hood, front bumper f***ed up my authentic Mazdaspeed GTC bumper But the lights have an HID option which I think is $1000.00.

Did anyone notice that gap between the top of the lights and the hood? It still looks awesome though, it kinda looks like the Eastbear kit.

Looks good, but I think the RUN Racing kit looks the best. I have no idea if they work well though.

I really don't care if it is a knock off or not.. saves hella money from having to buy the real thing for around 1400... useful money i could put else where... Plus RE doesn't offer a CF version.. Just a CF version with an intake hole..

He is suppose to email me when the first set is ready to go.. I have and HID kit off a gs400 ready to put in it.. As soon as I get and install them I will post pics... ANd if you insist on the orginal.. he also sells **** load of orginal stuff from RE, knight sports, feed, etc... he really has beefed up his site with products.. (orginal and replica)

where did u find that pic alpine? The lights look sweet as hell with the HID. I wouldn't consider the rotaryextreme a "knockoff". It has a CF housing (not offered by RE if i am correct), HID option and the pods are a little different. Oh well, i will still get chucks kit once i get the money.

I like this kit a lot, just curious though If I wanted the HID's in high and low beam and the CF look I would have to spend $2950.00? That is hella lot. damn I guess I can't have everything.

7hvn...I sent you about a million PMs and no response from you, I guess I'll keep on being a burden to you until I get a response. I'm sorry to hear about your new front, that thing looked so sweet on your car. I can help you out buy buying that other front, which I need ASAP, I can pay in cash anytime, just let me know. It looks like this would be a great time for you to sell the other piece.
