I was wondering if anybody has attempted to get a company to make us projecter headlights? There is alot of interest in these and there seems to be quite a few companies that do this. If they were sold cheaper than JDM I would get some. Has any body ever tried?

I thought it would be a better alternative than to converting our lights to neons like some other people are thinking about doing.

This seems like a pretty interesting idea, the only thing is polishing and shaping the glass is so much work, and not to mention having to aquire or make housings, it would get expensive. Just look at the ones Doggy made.

alot of other aftermarket projector lenses are made from plastic. Some companies charge maybe 150 for a pair since we have four lights, it should possibly come to be around $300 for all four if we can find the right company.
