PS* I want the complete picture!!
I believe he said above that they were test halo's, and he gets his this week. Then you'll have your picture. As it stands, no one has installed the final fitments, thus no pictures exist.

Sorry guys, I just got back from vacation, and as you all know the weather up here in the northeast has been a beast, so I have not been able to get to the install. I hope I will be able to get to it htis weekend, I know everybody is waiting for pics so I will do my best.

Go to the link that was posted in this thread to buy, when 10 orders are reached the halos will be shipped, if more than 20 are purchased then I belive the difference will be credited back to you. I will contact them tomorrow.

....I saw another set of halo's here....

I believe Deuse (sp?) has them on in his whip.


I'm inclined to get these probably seeing how I see how they look on his car and for the simple fact that a member has them on and has yet to give any negative input, or maybe I'm wrong since I'm new.

Those are LEDs and much less bright. Cool blue color though. CCFL are much more noticeable. Whatever floats your boat. Take some pics!

Nevermind than. I would like the bright variety. I'm new to all this, so excuse my ignorance when it comes to mechanical issues.

I *believe* mine might be at the post office. If not it's coming soon. I'll install and take good pictures outside so you can judge them.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but everyone who paid got a usps tracking number that is still has not been picked up. kenji06 contacted them, and they aren't shipping til they get 10 orders.
The only one that will be able to post pics is JoesRedMax, and he was on vacation. Hopefully he got it done this weekend to post more pics.

Next time we create a list of people who are gonna buy a new mod we should make the title of the list;
"Might be, Maybe or I'm not Sure if I'll buy these... But they look cool/great idea list. Put my name down. Doesn't cost anything to put my name here does it?"

This is the same reason why I didn't want to order them from the beginning. It's not fair to those who have had the real intentions from the moment they put their names on the list and paid for the item immediately after the option to pay was available. Why does the manufacturer have to wait until he gets "10" secure orders? If people are so worried about cost, just hike the price up a bit. The product is selling for a very reasonable amount as it is, I'm sure people wouldn't mind paying an extra $10 or so to have their item shipped the MOMENT they pay for it.

I'm gonna contact them and see if I can get mine for a lil more $$$. But, by the looks of other similar halos, they may go for $199-229.
I believe this is an introductory offer to stir up sales, and after the initial orders are placed, the price will be much higher.
I'll check with them and see if I can get mine sent by paying more.

Can't say that I am surprised by this. It reminds me of the Carbon Fiber Hood....... If I recall near 50 people voted, but when the time came to open up their wallets, only 4 people stood up......

I understand that this an "introductory price" to expose the product out there, but it's even more reason as to why you would want your product out there, on some Maximas that are driving in everyday streets, where your product gets the exposure to make it successful. It does no one any good to hold "hostage" the product for those who have already paid for only because you don't have 10 orders to ship it out to initially. If they would be business savvy they would realize that this hurts them, not helps them. They should ship the items to those who have paid, let them install it, get pictures for those like me who are very interested, but want to see the product on the vehicle and actually functioning and than they'll see that they'll have more than 10 orders. I guess some people who go into business can't see how simple the solution could be. You want sales? Ship the paid products and wait for the numerous sales coming your way.


Than again, I never majored, or went to school for business, so what do I know?

I just emailed Justin about the problem we're having getting our 10 orders. He said I could pay more to get them shipped off tomorrow, so I did.
Hopefully I'll have some pics next weekend to get people to front up the money.
I don't want to say how much more, because he said he was giving me a good deal, since Joe has been soo busy and I was helping him out.
Not sure if he would give the same "deal" to everyone if they wanted theirs shipped sooner.

I'm about ready to ask for a refund. This is ridiculous. I'll never participate in another "Group" buy again.
