Whats mroe expensive? modifications for a C6 corvette or a c5? what about a c4? realy cheap huh?


...Ummm its basic...as times goes on things get OLDER...they AGE...and with that comes depreciation and less demand. (in most situations, in some rare and collector or vintage cars, they appreciate and the scarcity and limited number of the cars raises the demand and value substantially- IE 50s corvettes)

When a new, hot, high-demand model comes out, the demand outweighs the production; and to up the production and the resources it takes additional costs!


SO i bet you they could get you them for LESS THAN 339 or whatever you said....if you let them take 5-8 years on your single set! or wait that long, and they will be MUCH less than 339...bet you by then there will be a new type of projector or a new technology! Want me to sign you up for the 339 ones?

You seem to have misunderstood me. Your reply makes it sound like they have some available but they cost more then the ones for the older lancers; this is not true, they don't sell them at all. I was stating that if they have the resources to get them made for the older lancers they certainly should for the 08-09 style as well, not for the same price obviously.

Like the Evo X concept Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

Sorry for the big pics, but I want you guys too see the details and the leds in the picture.





And a gauge pod like this (single, dual or triple) for the top of the dash.
You can merge that piece with the radio cover so it looks like a OEM part.

Oh also, replacement interior trim with REAL CF instead of the junk faux CF that fades.

If they fabbed up those headlights I'd expect them to be $450+. You guys are actually ready to plop down that money in a heart beat?!
