    It's hard to make them less with us being a business. We have a lot of overhead to cover and also we like to think best warranty for custom parts.

    We will do a build thread on these and show everyone what it takes to build these and supplies we use. (Paint guns, paint, clear coat etc....)

    I hear ya.

    Just thinking out loud here:

    Let's say we get 20 buyers who sign up and put down a deposits, that way you can order the tails in bulk, then do all 20 at one time, would that help shave cost?

    What could we do to make these more affordable?

    In my BMW modding days, I saw $800 smoked headlights go down to $200-300 and once that happened it seemed like everyone was rolling around on smoked elipsoids

    problem is we don't get discounts on lights so 1 or 20 its same price for us. Also only way that would work is if we painted and did all the taillights the same way but sense everyone wants different colors or options it wouldn't work sense we would have to use different paint for each set.

    Most I think we can do is 5 percent off more if we get 10 buyers.

    Yes they are as far as color and reverse light. We only do this on the LED taillights I'm sorry. Our pricing includes new led taillights

    It's also more difficult to do since you can't bake them open like headlights. Andrew from TRS had to grind to get the lense and housing apart. If it were easy, the price would be lower and everyone would have them.

    I don't like the led styling. I wanted the base styling done. Keeping an eye for something. Thank though.

    I'd rather have tail lights than diapers:rofl:
    OP's price is reasonable..people don't realize the amount of time/custom work that goes into it. GLWS

    I agree. However, I'm sure that would be frowned upon in this establishment. ;)
