new sleek kit

Classy
iTrader: (17)
THIS IS NOT A SALE THREAD AND THERE IS CURRENTLY NOTHING FOR SALE!
that being said im anticipating in the $950 range shipped in the lower 48.
it should be right around the evo-r kit but better lighting.
and i am hoping to have the first set done by the end of march. and go into production.
both price and time are subject to change.
If you have an extra one lying around ill take it. my wife lost mine. but i just cant afford one right now, over full time at school means minimal hours at work, that and paying for stupid amounts of gas, compounded on top of other bills. and what free money i do have is going toward the project.

thanks for the support guys! thats what keeps my head in it. im super excited to see some of my kits on other peoples car. for me i think that will be the greatest feeling seeing some dead sexy fds with something that i poured my heart into on them. hopefully we will see a few mag articles with my lights. which i can assure you i will be framing!

so slight change of plans, in a good way.
so the biggest hold up right now is the lenses, most currently creating the plug part for the vacuform process. the reason is is a semi problem (annoyance if you will) is that my initial plan was to create the lenses and use them when creating the shroud plug to insure a good fit between the lens and shroud. so because this is taking so long im going to start the shroud and at least get a close/rough fit between the shroud and lens. that way once the lens is done i can tighten up the fitment.
i will work on the shroud and lens at the same time. once i have my redesigned lens/shroud bracket in hand i can start the shroud.

i forgot to update you guys as to the results of the aux light testing, so here it goes. so when i initially hooked it up they were super bright, to the point of too bright and could be blinding to oncoming traffic. so today i was able to get into the electronics lab at school found a resistor that brings the brightness down a bit. it is at a point now that im comfortable with it, bright enough to be seen during the day but not blind others.
