Yeah this has happened a few times where someone steps up and nothing ever happens with it. I would like to think this would be an exception though, but I doubt it.

Nothing ever happens because after they complete their own set they realize they won't make any money on them, and to make money you'd have to charge more than most on this forum paied for their car.

It's a shame, i'm stuck with the CP racing flushmount kit I picked up a while back and I am not looking forward to putting it on my car. Makes the front end look cheap in person. Poorly made.

Alot of you guys know how much money I have put into my car, it's too bad to put some POS light setup in. Someone has to be able to offer a better option...

I think I have a better option for you Dan.

Since we know you got skillz, you should make your own lol, and document how you did it and maybe make templates so others can do it haha.

Problem solved for everyone?

I hear that.

Although my kit was relatively easy to adapt from the MTM flush kit.......and I could probably duplicate it(since MTM is out of buisness).........I have absolutley no desire to do so.
The quality isnt bad,but its not up there where I could charge 300-400 bucks for it. And charging less than 200 would seem like a waste, for the work I'd do........and thats on a mod I have no interest in. My interest in the flush light kit ended once mine was installed,and I had shed 10lbs while getting "the look". Im sure others have felt the same way once their headlight mods were finished.

I was interested in this kit as well.. it would have given me a bunch of ideas for how to set up a low profile pop-up headlight prototype...

Oh, well its a shame there hasn't been an update.

Hey everyone,

So alot has happened in the last 4 years.

When I moved the kit got put in a box and filed away.

Anyway, I found the box and I will start working on it again this week.....

Here are the latest updates.

The kit is unfinished fiberglass.

The kit will be the buckets only.

There will be no lexan lids.

I will take some new pics this week........
