If they are 1 of only 3 made they should be worth more than any normal pair of headlights by a bit, I wouldn't pay $10k for them but some collectors pay out the *** for unique items.

Lets see - heads, cam, long tubes, true duals, Fikse wheels and a ZL-1 stripe (and probably a few other things) or those...sounds like a no-brainer.

What a dumbass, He could have taken those. Had a mold made. And then extended them to fit a reg hood and mass produce them. But no he has to beat off to SLP and jack the price up think. Think about it sell like 30 of them for 600 bucks a pop bam profits etc and you have your own lil busness thing going on..................

I'd pay $500 for them for sure. Those look like HIDs for the outer lights. $10k is overdone but under $1,000 they would sell.

You arent the only one. I think thats one reason why you arent seeing more Breathless units around. Well, that and the pricetag. Not a lot of people are willing to shell out a grand on headlights.

That's David Hamburger of SLP selling those lights. I posted a thread on them under the Special Edition section here. They are backwards of the Breathless headlights and I believe the low beams are projector beams on the Firehawk lights. Nice lights but not $10K's worth. Not even sure I'd pay 1K for the Breathless ones.

With all the horror stories Ive heard of bulb replacement, lense quality and overall quality I wouldnt spit on them, much less purchase them.
