Those are the Black Chromes.

I've got them.

You can get them on Ebay for $125. Email me and I'll tell you who the guy is, great Ebayer.

Those are different. These used to be the ones that came with the cuda kit before sr made their own. If you look closely the brake light is in between the turn signal and reverse light.

Nope, that is not the guy I got mine from.

AZ, I'm sure that's it. I've only seen the APC styles, the SR styles with CF, Chrome and Black Chrome.

I think it's just the lighting in that shot that make it look like that.

Those were some prototypes that SR had made...design was not able to be produced though, thats why we changed the design to what you see everywhere now. I dont know how many of those original designs are around..only a couple i think.

If youre making a note to self, why post it on a message board? Ah, to be negative toward SR like you always have been. Anyway, you were wrong to correct axnx...he made a correct statement. He did not say that SR made them in their own shop. No one makes altezza lights in shops or their own places apc, matrix, all the big manf. make the designs themselves like SR does, and then gets them made at a factory in China or Taiwan. Thus, axnx was correct in his statement that SR "made their own."

I didn't reallize that SR had merged with the company that made the Cuda kit for so long. I thought it was a recent thing, about when you guys made the C2 kit.
Also if these were just prototypes, how were they made? and why were they offered at all if there wasn't a mold made?

I'd really like to get a set of these in black chrome or cf. If anyone can help find them I'd really appreciate it.
