Default Is CiNcity headlight customizing pricing overboard?

**this is not a bash thread, more of me just wanting to know what is involved in some of these customization phases**

I hope some of CiNcity people can come in answer some questions.

I saw this bidding on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CiNci...spagenameZWDVW


It says in the description that 4 people, that would be 4 sets of headlights retail $15,000 of customizing.

Can i ask why does it cost so much or what is involved?

Thanks. I hoping to send in headlights for painting, but was wondering about other services you guys offer.

Great FIND! That's just a advertisement to get out our names. We get a lot of people from ebay wanting lights when we post auctions. And we just say hey if someone is willing to pay the BIN amount then thats up to them. It's only a $7 ad so you can't beat advertising for $7

Our prices aren't that high we just don't want someone to bid 4K and have to pay ebays heavy listing fees.

We will also beat anyones prices.

No one pays those prices. It's just for cheap advertising. When a ebay ad goes up we get roughly 100+ emails a day and our forums blow up with visitors just look at it now we broke a record for 700+ members online today. We use ebay to advertise and that's all

Million + viewers on ebay and only $7 to list a ad to advertise. Everywhere else is like $150 for the month so you do the math

I will EAT a complete headlight if someone uses the BIN price and put it on youtube!!! That'd really make my day But no, as Tim said, we just put adds on Ebay as a form of cheap advertising with a stupid price so nobody will actually buy it to avoid fees.

hey I have a question about the halo ring lights....um is it lit up by the color bulb you have inside or is it seperate leds on their own or how does that work? Also in Florida blue lights are illegal so is there a way that if they are seperate leds that you can turn them on and off seperately from the headlights?

No other headlight company compares to CinCitydesigns.com!!! They just can't touch the level of detail and the customer service you get from Nic and the boys over at Cin city. Also the parts are top notch and no cheapo Radio Shack crap.
