New Update. I think we're almost there. Just cleaning up some of the edges and minor contouring adjustments:
Different color to better show contours:
Almost there. I anticipate a few more days and we should have a finalized design.

Note: Once the design is finalized, I will get a more specific time-span estimate from the CNC shop. The Pre-Sale GP will be started at this time.
I will then pickup the shrouds and deliver them to the Thermo-forming shop and have them re-installed on the Plenum box. At that point we'll be good to go for the first SLC V3 production run.

Based on rough early measurements, there is a 1/2" to 3/4" difference in overall "lens bulge" between the factory headlight cover and the SLC lens. Unless you had them side by side, you'd probably never notice.

Looking at < 1 week until the shroud design is finalized. The Pre-sale will begin at that point. I will have an ETA on the first production run after I talk to the CNC shop about their work schedule.
And group purchase prise ??
The Pre-sale (and lowest price they will ever be) Is $995 + shipping
Optinal lighting chioces ??
"Hypervision" (quad Bi-xenon projectors)
Aux fog light (for cars with or without fog lights from factory)
COB style LED Angel eyes (VERY bright)
...Possibly Audi style LEDs, but I won't know until I have the first production shrouds for additional testing.
Tinted lens available ??
Sorry, this is a no-can do for legal and technical reasons.

It would be possible to use an exact-match lens but it would require cutting a hole in the wheel well....something not even I care much to do (again)

^ thanks. i'll probably take the amber angel eyes. i think you mentioned you can mod them to make "angry" eyes right?
also do you have to modify the light circuit so the hypervision runs with all 4 lights on?

I will have the "Evil eyes" modification available. It's not all that elaborate, but does require some expertise. Probably a $25 upgrade.
