That's the one that I saw...it looked CHEAP!!! in person from a distance i said..thats kinda cool..but when he pulled up..dang it looked bad. I didn't like how it had to poke up (above the hood line) to fit the lights. I don't think that even he like it. He complained of the low beams alot. Any other custom headlight (nonpopup)???

I like this one better than the guy from Japans. This one still looks like a vette, the other looks like a 240Z.

are you going to use lexan? press and hold the shift button while you type to fix that caps lock all you have to do is pop out the caps lock button and dust it... should fix most of the problems

The C4R kit does not put out quality lighting.

With the speeds your car is capable of, you might want to consider other options.

I went with Daniel Sterns kit.

Bosch e-spec reflectors, rewired headlights with 10 gauge wiring, 130/100 watt Narva clear bulbs.

Incredible lighting.

Bob "Spongebob" Curran's '96 PRO Xtreme Street Grand Sport dragcar has the C4R lights on it. Looks like the Breathless kit (and it may be). I talked to him at Memphis and he said he pulled over thirty pounds off the nose converting the lights over. I've been mulling over the same thing.
