sorry to give you all false hope. I had one side completed and started the second about 2 weeks ago. Between work, and I am a volunteer firefighter, I havent had a whole lot of time to work on them. A guy pulled out in front of me a destroyed the front end. So with that I give up on the project. I have one housing left if anyone wants it. it is just the base. let me know.

We need to let this thread die because the originator stopped working on them due to the crash.

Daytona, your welcome to start a new thread, or anyone else for that matter.

Those are the Breathless units that have been mentioned. They are too pricy at $1000 IMO.

Nice paint BTW.
