please don't get my wrong I love my CinCity Headlights and I paid no where near what you guys are talking about, but I was one of the first orders when they opened and I just assumed that was why my prices were so much lower. however it seems like TB is contradicting himself in this thread and thats why i felt like I needed to chime in.

This is messed up...I think TB is trying to confuse everyone. Throwing random figures at people depending on his mood.
On a serious note, I was looking into getting my lights done with cincity. I noticed that their prices were excessively high. But I started to notice that the pricing for everyone was different. Some people got cheap prices with or without sponsorships. Others got totally raped (myself included).
I also started to realize that they started giving discounts on every holiday occasion/ car event...
"thanksgiving sale", "post sema sale", best pricing sale etc...
Which led me to believe that their profit margin is ridiculous... I think they will lose business because of such practices. And there is 1 thing that a company cannot live without.... and thats customers.

I think that the OP did his lights and they look great and as for everyone else with the problem of Cincity's prices or another companies prices that should be put in another thread cause you guys have serious jacked this guys thread for probably the last 2 or 3 pages. Oh yeah I do not have lights done by Cincity I just don't feel that jacking someones thread is right. This is my opinion.
Congrats on your lights OP and they look great and glad to hear you have saved money by doing it yourself.

Man you guys act like little kids 
We offered to trade services for items cause a few people asked us about it. And it worked out for both parties. And as far as volks for light works read the post jackass I was giving cash + the headlight work. All you haters keep hating. I'm out 
We beat any competitors prices and thats the final word.

Your such a great business owner, or web designer, or whatever you are...Your right you do beat all your competitors prices, by adding 50% on top of what they charge.

We usually charge everyone $1500 to paint their lights, but I'll give you 30% off. So that's $1000 out the door, you just need to pay shipping and $499 for us to put it back together again!

I think I'll post my convo up for a few lulz.

Then he realizes I was one of the guys offered 50% sponsorship and jacks the price up again.
Enjoy

I just wanted to follow up with you just one more time on the price and also on the shipping address. But before anything, check out this post:

Now, I'm saying this with the up most respect. He was quoted $675 for the combo I want (angel eyes, paint, and demon eyes). How come I was told it would cost $1,050 for the same thing?

as for the mods.... blacked out and halo for sure. the demon eye mod would look super sweet on your set up. the demon eye would be set up so that you can hook up a separate switch inside your car so you can turn them on whenever you want. its really simple.
here is what we charge everyone else:
Black out / color match ~$350
Projector LED color mod ~ $375 (Demon Eye)
Angel eye hyper white ~$325 (Halo)
Total for work not including a set of lights would be $1050. we would make it an even $500 for mod work plus if we have to ship you a set of our lights. i dont know the price of those or if we even have a set we could piece together. i will have to talk to nic about that tomorrow and see what they would be worth.
so i will keep in touch with you about the light situation and you let me know if you have any access to a spare set of lights.
Thanks

So yea.. That should be better.

So what's my final price and what's your address?

Our prices change as the market changes and when my vendors charge more, I have to charge more. Simple. Either way, $500 shipped will take care of you :thumb
