Lightbulb Gauging interest : Full carbon fiber headlight

How many people would be interested in a real full carbon fiber headlight shroud for the G35 coupe 06-08 headlights ? They will be a direct replica replacement but have the clearance strip shaved also . We are thinking of offering the shrouds by them self or installed and retrofitted by us . Price looks like it will be in the 250-350 range (not a set price just rough guess) since these are not made yet . If we have enough interest we will start making them and possibly do a group buy .

Pics added to page 4 .

Yes they can be cut/drilled to be retrofitted with LEDs . These will only work with 06+ lights with projector . We feel that most people have 06 lights so where not gonna bother making a seperate design for the 04 lights .

i hate how everything is made for coupes...can you like take a tiny bit of time and make decent projectors for sedans? unless you try to charge over 1k you will sell a crap load of them.
