Default Cheap exposed headlight kit?

Anyone know of a cheap exposed headlight kit, the prices that I've found seem to be around the 1,200$ range! :eek: a little too expensive for my blood.

The only kit I've seen is also $1200, maybe the same one, and it doesn't look as good on a C4 like the C5 non pop-ups do.

EDIT:There is a pair on ebay for 550 buy it now. I don't know anything about them. end edit
Seems like you could have a custom shop make you a pair cheaper???
$900? For headlights? Are they those HID headlights?
Any custom bodywork shops around?
I thought the ads for these and the led tailights in Corvette Central were a mistake! :eek:

Those ones on ebay are from www.c5west.com
He's got pics on the website and sells on ebay alot also.

They're sort of like the C5R headlight in that the covers have a bulge; unlike the Breathless kit which is flush with the hood.
