I love my kit, I think most thing differently because it's a different look to the whole front end now.
Honestly if you look at the openings on the front of the TransAm, the RamAir inlets, and the turn signals as well as the other opening belot the signal is more of a rectangle I don't think it stands out as much as it's portrayed, but yet all round would look nice, or so we think. Wont know till it's done, or if it's ever done.

So you vote for the extended headlight cover?

Unless you changed your mind, I thought your were not going to make these for sale. I was implying "If only someone made these (for sale to the general public)"

Yes they would look better with round projectors however. I like my kit, alot of people whine over the price, is it high yes? Until someone makes another kit, to be produced to the public, deal with it...Until there is competition they can get what they want out of them. Now even if they redesigned, or the orginal design used the round setup like a C6 and have the 3 lights, or even two. Then the price would be higher either for more parts for the 3, or let alone for more than likely using an HID setup with round projectors. So it would just be even more reason to complain about the price.

Is it just the pic or do your wheels stick way out of the wheel wells? it looks like you need a taller sidewall on those wheels. Im commenting on the wheels cause im not sure if i like the headlights or not... sorta makes the car look crosseyed

You guys bitch about the price now, but you should take a look at what RX7,MR2 etc people have to shell out for flush headlights.
It will make the breathless kit very resonable if you compare them, but honestly they all are over priced.
The white TA is by far a awsome looking car and just looks so sexy!!!!!!!!!

I think I'm putting around $700 or so into mine and it will use BMW projectors and HID bulbs. Should I sell it for $1500 to $2000? To me that sounds rediculous.
I bet if there was a competitor, Breathless would cut the price in half and still make a healthy profit. I just don't see the money in their kit. Maybe the lens they had made is the most expensive part?

You could always use NiteShades on it, but you will wreck trying to drive at night. 
Now if you had HID, then maybe the tinting would still allow enough light to go through to actually see with. Your right about the looks though. That's why I'm mostly going to paint mine and only leave enough lens showing for the light to go through, the rest will be painted black. I could even experiment with tinting mine a little, just to see how it effects the output in comparison to the cosmetics in the daytime. Maybe there is a special dark coating that will minimize light loss. I've seen that on driving lights.

Maybe I can figure out what they use.
