Hey man... I remember you and I think Zipps were going to try to make the clear corner markers... any word? I have a feeling sor what ever bizarre reason, this stupid piece of plastic is impossible to make I just can't bring myself to paint it out black while keeping the amber strip slit open.

I AM IN THE EXACT SAME SITUATION AS JERGENS...I AM FINISHING UP DIS-ASSEMBLY OF THE HEADLIGHTS TONIGHT AND I REALLLLLY WANT THESE CLEAR CORNER LENSES, BUT IF THEY AREN'T AVAILABLE, I PLAN ON JUST REMOVING THE AMBER STRIP AND LEAVING IT EMPTY FOR NOW. HOPE TO HEAR SOME GOOD NEWS SOON!!!

 

I haven't heard any word on them yet, Zipps?

Its expensive, I wish anyone luck that tries it. I certainly didnt have much luck.

I beleive the problem lies in it having a sphere shape. so you cant really use a flat sheet, could, but fitment might be questionable. like trying to lay a picture of the globe on a flat sheet.

and its so thin that resin has a hard time curing; atleast thats the main excuse Ive gotten from my caster. further, it being so thin makes it difficult to get bubbles out.

perfect world youd have them ABS injected as nissan did, but they arent the same, so now you have 2 molds at 10-20grand. and unfortunatly though it appears popular, when it comes down to it, Ive sold 20(and shipped 10 of those), and have inquiries from about 7 more that want emails. that isnt THAT many to ever justify the cost of the mold, unless their paying 500$ a peice.

 

Hey Ares... any idea how much further down the list I am? Are you still cranking them out or did you make ten and throw in the towel? Bummer man, pisses me off that this is so difficult for us.

how was your guy originally making them that you said only costed $80? From what I saw of them, they looked very good quality to me.

 

what exactly are we talking abotu here? I might be interested.

and BAtmobile i want some of your overlays... i emailed you thi smorning. Hit me up!

 

we were referring to the amber reflectors in the headlights...trying to find someone that has the SUPER RARE sets of them in CLEAR. let us know if you have any leads or hear of anything new...so far we haven't had much luck..

 

BlueBatmobile ever thought of making a CARBON FIBER top part for the Z...i have a carbon hood and am looking for a carbon top wich would cover the top part of the car from the front wind glass to the rear glass ..and from side to side ???
u think it can be made !

 

I'ver done it already, just haven't released it yet.

man I LOVE U ur the best ...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
am gono get the first one .....
but need to see pics first.

 

nope, havent thrown in the towel, Im still keeping up the the guy doing the work, but he gives a new meaning to slow. their quality was flawless, no less of a word could describe them. you could ask the lucky few that have them. they were simply perfect. and the price is right. he's just slow, incredably slow...

 

So when will it be out !

 

how did he manage to kick out those first 10 sets so quickly and then just stop producing them? Did he just decide that making them was not profitable for him or something?

 

quickly? heh there was nothing quick about it. he took like 5 months to make 10... he's right on schedule for the 3rd set.

 

haha... being that I have like 10-12 people still ahead of me in line for these, maybe I should put them on my christmas list.. for next year?

 

I still don't even know where I sit on the list. Ares do you have a order list where we can see how far down we are? Bleh, this is driving me nucking futs.

~Josh

 

thats ridiculous

 

Man, you guys should just give up hope and get these....
