I wasn't advertising them for sale. Someone said to 'sell them to us'. The parts are very expensive, plus I started out with a new set of OEM lights. If you think 1500.00 is a lot for probably the best pair of headlights available for a camaro then go back to ebay and buy your halo lights. If you look up C6 OEM lights, they're almost 2,000.00 a set. This is a completely custom project that took a lot of work to make this nice. I really don't care if you think it's too much. I make the money so why not spend it?
It's 1/4 the price of the whole damn car!

well I could see spending it on bills, yeah, if you're in debt. I have no debt. All my cars are paid off, the only thing I have is mortgage, which is typical. I was sharing my project, not advertising them for sale anyway. Guess I am retarted because I have money to spend and make my car sweet. Nothing high quality is cheap. Also, this is the best thing to do if you want better lighting, for example HID's. If you slap some cheap ebay HID kit in your reflector housing then you are the guy I am flipping off as I drive by you.

And all we're saying is that no one is dumb enough to spend that much money on a set of headlights.

If you want to throw in my face that all your cars are paid for, So are all seven of mines. I meant bills to the three houses I own. You think paying the electric bill/Water and gas, plus Trash along with many others household bills. For three houses is cheap!? Nobody in the right mind will pay $1500.00 for some lousy pair of headlights.

Definitely looks good. I did this to my Subaru and it was worth every penny. It's quite hard to get it aimed properly and takes quite a bit of skill. On average though, the pros that do it, light lightwerkz.net, charge about $700 for a TSX retro.
