From the looks of it, 180 custom does an awesome job. The paint and mods look flawless.
Not to mention the 1 year warranty, or for an extra $150 you get 3 full years which is awesome.

I sent them a pm about doing my headlights I just picked up from 350Power. Gonna see about having the housings painted, iron man around the project lens and see if they'll swap the JDM STi lens and spacer. The price is what I would expect a company to charge.

Yes I as well like there prices and if the work is good with a waranty you can not go wrong.

Can anyone confirm if they do our 350z headlights? Hope the prices are the same as the 370z. Would think they would be.

I'm just waiting on a pm back to tell if they do them for the 350z. I'm sure they would since they have a section for the 350z and 370z. They also offer the G35 and G37, so it shouldn't be too much different.

just called tem and they will do the 350z head lights at the same prices and confirmed they are the FIRST EVER willing to paint the projector and back it for 1yr without the extended. At this price it is so worth the 3yr extended.

I agree. Prices are just IMO.

That's been the biggest thing for me. Is getting projector painted by a company that is willing to warranty their work.
I could paint it... Then when it bubbles up I'm SOL.

Thanks for calling them, was waiting on a response back and couldn't call from work right now. That's awesome news. Gonna be placing an order soon then. Def want to paint the project piece. Look out clearcorners.com and CinCity, got a new Sheriff in town.

Prices are awesome, work looks flawless, and turn around time being less than a week tops the cake!

Some people have been having a hard time getting a hold of them. Apparently the guy in the shop is all by himself now and is crazy swamped.

Placed an order via email to 180........... And no response. I even called em and told em they had an email from me................. And no response other then they'll check it.

Everytime I call em they don't answer the phone with an expected "180 custom how can I help you?" like most companies.

I want these guys to build my lights. But if I don't here from them by Monday evening my business is going to lightwerkz.

It's odd. When I call they're real nice. But they answer with a hello. Not a company name. I can hear rap music in the background typically. Not that there is anything wrong with that but it seems that they just don't have their stuff together.
Almost like they're my age.

I'm confident that they're busy as can be. But I get the feeling it's for their New York area friends/clients that have Z's and G's.

Ah well. the quote I got from Ceasar at lightwerkz.net is decent. Much better priced then clearcorners.... Seems I'll go that route.
Lightwerkz has gotten back to me w/ a quickness everytime I've emailed.

P.S. I found a thread 180 custom placed on the 370z . com site that gives everyone 20% off.... I'd love to use it... If they ever got back to me.

Wow this thread blew up. I forgot about it.

Some people think taking apart a headlight is a cakewalk, toss it in you're home oven and push BAKE for 20 minutes, a few coats of krylon and you're done. We dont do things that way.

Its not about the money, its about offering our customers a solid product thats worth our time and provides value.

I hope that answers your question.

Respectfully,
Mike / ClearCorners.Com


ps: If I were to have to choose amongst all the lighting companies out there, I'de have to say go with Lightwerkz.
Which is why I was interested in your company even though it was for paint work only.

I am a diy person when it comes to well jut about everything. This is one area where I do not feel I can complete the project to the quality that I want, and would rather pay someone who can do it better then I can. As for lights, I am not a fan. I just want them black to match the overall theme without any hazing, moisture, or whatnot.
