Default C4 DOT Certified Projector Headlight System

RICE PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS LLC

Finally a high quality, reasonably priced headlight upgrade for C4 (1984-1996) Corvettes. If your tired of fixing headlight motors or just want better night time visibility from your C4, this is the upgrade for you. The headlamp System pictured is the result of two years of testing and improvements. We selected DOT certified, glass lens, 60 mm, Hella projector headlamps for our system because the quality and light output are second to none. Our system comes with everything you need for a seamless installation. We are always ready to answer questions about our products, so don’t hesitate to call (361-563-1043) or email rppcorvette@gmail.com .

ONLY $750. We offer discounts for forum members, and public servants (military, police, firemen, etc). We are also interested in a good installation and product videos (we are willing to give partial refunds or discounts on other products for video footage we can use since we are a small company).

We are currently working on a high quality, DOT compliant HID system for the C4 system and other systems. We are finalizing a C4 frame brace. We are considering a Carbon fiber battery relocation kit. We are considering a C4 camber brace. Let us know if there is anything else you would like to see produced or improved. We keep a product interest list to determine our next developments.

Thanks,
Brandon, Stanley and Amy

I am sorry but that looks ridiculous. Sorry, give me my $5 bushing repair and good looks over whatever this is. I am all for great night time visibility but not at the expense of ruining a classic muscle car. Just my .02!

Guys, this isn't the place to bash a unique part being made for a very limited market for a 20 year old car.

If you'd think about it, you'd realize that this part saves weight and adds performance (better nighttime aero and adequete down road lighting for spirited nighttime driving)

Apparently, your tastes on styling are outdated anyways because its been a growing trend on new cars to ditch flip up headlights.

I personally am very happy this vendor is supporting our cars.


I plan to combine these with a carbon fiber hood for the ultimate weight savings

Sorry dude, apparently you and I have much different taste. I am not bashing this company for supporting our cars, I prefaced my comment as simply my opinion. You have your opinion about how this weight reduction and improved lighting for nighttime driving is enough for you. For me, I wouldn't do this to my Corvette for free, as I feel it looks retarded and would make me feel like a ricer.

Different strokes for different folks. I am not hating. You do what you will with your C4 but if you are suggesting that my tastes are outdated, I would say that there is a reason that you don't see carbon fiber and lighting such as this on classic muscle cars, it simply doesn't belong.
