ONEight: Why coupes get more aftermarket parts..

Even though I like to do work on sedans more than coupes... this is the reason why the coupes get more love from companies than the sedans guys.

The sedan guys just talk about it, while the coupe guys get it done. We get about 2 sedans for every 10 coupes we work on.

This is about what we knock out on weekly basis. If anyone is considering headlight work, hit us up now because we're not as busy as we get in late spring, summer to early fall.

Excuse the quality, had to use a 10yo point and shoot, forgot my DSLR at home.

That project has been put on hold. The custom shrouds we need would cost $thousands$ to make and right now it doesn't make sense for us to spend that. If everything goes as planned, we'll start the production on them in the summer. Until then sit tight, or save up for a 2010 front-end conversion

And Stoof doesn't work with us, for ever a year now.

Thanks,
Alex

Absolutely...





I don't have any with the turn signal reflector left chrome, but I'm honestly not a big fan of it, so I advice against it, it just looks out of place... so by standards we paint it along with the housing, sometimes a customer would request it in chrome. Here's what it looks like on a white car





IMO, silver or gunmetal projector shrouds look sick on black.

Yeah, let me get all the pricing together and I'll shoot you a PM, just send me a PM so I remember to reply back to you.

We have loaner headlights, not in the best condition but they are fully functional. As long as you cover all the shipping we can certainly do that.

Let us know what you're interested in, shoot over a PM for further discussion.

Thanks,
Igor
