As if he wasn't making enough on shipping. Shipping might cost like $20 for everything ground Fedex. I'm sure if he's jacking up shipping like that he's also jacking up the part itself bigtime. Jon.

He'll prolly continue to jack up the price until he see's the interest or sales go down on those. For the price he was originally charging was fair because he's prolly getting them from outside the U.S.

Now that he's charging more and more, its not worth it in my opinion. I'd just wait on them. They just came out and I highly doubt that they'll be discontinuing these black housing headlights anytime soon........perhaps they'll make different ones in the future with white housings or something to that effect.

If the only market he is seeing are the peeps on this site, then you guys can control his price :D

Just make sure none of you would buy above $250. He'll have to drop it lower than that. If any of you would even buy one, he'd keep it at that price or even raise it up again.

Too bad, I have a Gen 1.5

Hey guys, sorry I didn't get back to you yet. I did recieve my lights yesterday. The headlights are great, but the corners aren't the greatest (as usual the quality sucks). But, they do look cool. I wish they would make it with the euro cover rather than the stock cover. Anyways, I'll get some pics up later, I've got some errands to run first.

I was wondering about opening the corners up and putting the covers from my clear coners on the backs of these new ones. But, I hear that I'll always have condensation and leaking problems. What do you all think?

Hummm, I've got a very nice set of black corners that may work. I'll let you guys know later.

He probably is watching the site now. Im not going to pay 300 bucks for that. Ill wait till one of his competetors learns his new trade and then the prices will drop. And he admitted krawzyazn that he is making money on the shipping too.
