First One To Purchase These v2s

Got the 1/1 going right now lol...

I was the first one to purchase the new Circuit Demon Morimoto v2 halos, however, pretty sure I'm not gonna be the first one to install them, 😅 being how my car's state is right now, which is 'completely stripped to frame,' pretty much.

Either way, just wanted to share. These guys really do great work, check em out if you get the chance.

their standard housing is about $2k, plus extra for lens etching and hydrodip. so closing in on $3k all complete.

which is reasonable for the work done.

my custom eclipse tails were about $1800 in parts, without any labor..


it's funny to me looking through their website. i was there when trs came out with the profile lineup... through a number of issues, i was almost involved in it. but all of the designs and concepts they're using are over 10 years old already!

cody clinton and jeff foster look vaguely familiar to me. i suspect both were active on hidplanet for some time. good to see a few guys not only making something of all that history, but continuing on with some of it.

I lucked out since I was the first one to purchase these guys, therefore, got them a lot cheaper than what they are going for now .

It was so crazy to see how much they were marked up nearly two weeks later

Haha, and yes, although I got a great deal, I wanted them to modify the hell out of these guys, so yeah, when it was all said and done, it was close to mid $2kish.
