I'll definitely have lots of pics with them on the car as soon as I get them back. I can't wait! Thanks again Roman.

Those look badass, I can't wait to see them finished and on the car. Will you be doing the rotor design permanetely now (just making sure you aren't making this a one time deal) and how long will it take you to do set now? I want the rotor shapes but can't be without my car for too long.

I think he'll do it for you. And the only reason it took him this long to do it was because
- I told him I didn't need it done quickly, the car is down for the winter anyways
- His motor blew
- He broke his digicam
He can more than likely do these just as fast as the circles now (which is like 12 hour turnaround, right?)

I am not so sure that I like them. They look like the rotors are pretty small. What if the center rotor was upside down and all 3 were made larger? I don't know, it will be great to see them on an actual car, that might change my mind. I Can't wait to see the pics...

im trying to get them done. i cant spray them because it is raining here. i also broke my digicam and i had to buy another one so that took a while. plus i had a motor rebuild and finals going on at the same time so thats why it got delayed.
about doing these again, i dont think i would do these for the same price because i waste 3 times more paper to make these as i do on the cirlces because i have to cut out 3 big circles and only use the section that they intersect so i went through 7 feet of paper just to do Jeff's (911GT2)'s lights. also, one out of 5 cutouts would come out right.
ill post pics later of what i mean.

i still dont know. if there is enought intrest in them, it might be about $25 more but if not, i might just not do them anymore. i just need about 3 more people to do them.
i also think 911GT2 copyrighted them already

ok, im done with the rotor shape lights:
http://www.goldenautomart.com/done%20rotors.htm
tell me what you think and if anyone wants the rotor shaped ones, they cost $100 because of more material used and way more time. turnaround time for these is about 3days to a week.

oh, also, you you want me to scrape off your sealent and put new sealent in there, i can do that for $20 more while its out! just if anyone is intrested. also, i have to know before so i can buy it in the exact amount because it costs me $14 for both lights. i have tried them on my lights and they work! if you have me reseal them, i will guarantee it from leaking ever again (not that my other ones have ever leaked but its 10 years old) just for sone thought!
#71
They look really good! If enough people want them you could make a nice bundle of $$ to spend on your 7. I wanted to do it myself but I can't get the sealent off to remove the lens. It might be a trade secret but how did you do it? It's just that I really like doing as much of the work on my car as possible and if you're back ordered then I wouldn't have to back you up even more.

im not really back ordered. i have already finished all of those today (yea, 5 in one day!!!) because i did all of them at the same pace and it was easir but it took about a good 6 hours of work. i have already packed these lights and have no more to do until i receive another shipment so if you want to send them, its fine with me.
as for making money to spend on my 7, i am making money so i can pay off the rebuild of my motor that is costing over 6.5k for some reason!!!!

I don't know how to post a picture but I made a change to one posted on this thread with a suggested mod to the conversion (speaking to anyone). I would like to post it for others opinions and for your opinion as to whether or not it could be done (speaking to rzograbian)??
