coming soon, all styles headlight lenses.
At first KDF Style, 100% like the original.
The repros are made from high definition plastik. 100% UV stable.
It´s the same material you can find on new cars.
There is only a little edition because of the special form. Maybe 8 sets.
In the moment i don´t know the exact price.
So, if someone is intrested in a KDF lens set, please send me an pm.

Very good questions. I'm trying to have some ready for the classicS. I don't know how much they will be, the materials aren't cheap. How much should they be?

They should be CHEAP. real CHEAP! But then again, so am I!

You need to figure materials and labor time and then build in whatever the market will bear.

Howzit Doug!

Can you shout out an update on the plastic lenses?

I'm looking for a pair of clear, "babywindow" front headlight lenses (56-57 oval window).

Mahalo,

Frank
