I can help you with that, because I don't touch your money until I have a product that I know I can ship. Too many people get scared that their going to get ripped off, so I stop accepting money up front, unless people insist (so that the money doesn't burn a hole in their pocket).

There are some delays from time to time (like when some members take forever to return tails back to me, uggghhh), but that's why I don't take anyone's money. This way, no one feels like they may or may not get ripped.

I refuse to sell through the store either. One, I can't keep up with demand, and the store is not trustworthy, and I don't want to be associated with it. I know some members are doing what they can to restore the faith in the my.is store, but the damage is done.

LMAO rep for the witty comment.

and i agree that i hate people on forums who 1. hate, 2. tell you "search!" when they should be giving useful advice and input or nothing at all, and 3. think theyre know it alls and the actual manufacturer of the is300, we all can learn from eachother

with that said please if people post on forums be helpful and respectful and not be a douche. very much appreciated

Well, in the defense of the haters, this IS the 4th thread about these headlights.

In fact, as I pointed out before, at one point, there were only 3 threads, and ALL THREE were on the first page of the inside and out forum.

If you're posting without at least reading or scanning any thread in bold (ones you have not viewed yet), then you're going to get some shiz about it.

You have to admit, 4 threads regarding the same topic is quite ridiculous, lol!!

Someone should just buy the ebay lights to give a review on how crappy they are. Like where you gonna put the stock hid ballast and no headlight motors.?

And no one is perfect, meaning ebay lights or aac. When I got my BRAND new headlights with there 6k angel eyes installed from aac I wasn't super happy. Headlights were brand new out the box with a few noticible nicks on the outside lens that could not be removed. That bummed me out. And then they use globbes of glue to hold the angel eyes in place which isnt super pretty. And to top it off I had my tailights done from them and sent them mint tailights, driver side being brand new, they sent me the brand new one back all painted up, with a nice size crack in the lens. They wouldn't replace it...

Hey, I was talking about your car in one of the posts above. Thats probably my fave IS on this site. Having went back and read the previous headlight threads, this one actually has some good feedback on the quality of headlights we have to choose from, and that in itself is great for everyone to know.

Plus, I think its amazing we now have got up to 2 pages of posts....we laughed , we cried , we argued ,it was a great thread! So thanks for everyones feedback, and after sleeping about on it I have came to the conclusion that I will stay away from these ebay headlights (my common sense kicked in last night over a pitcher of beer.)

Just a heads up to anyone who is looking for one, but someone is selling a real L tuned spoiler on ebay for like 125 buy it now, with 25 shipping. I was gonna buy it but I think I am going to skip on the spoiler. Seems like a fair deal for a so called "real" L tuned spoiler. I tried to get them to come down on the price but they werent having it.

And I have to get this out there:

Go Arizona Wildcats!

Go Phoenix Suns!

Yeah.....

That's the truth. Nick is working on mine as we speak and he's never asked for anything upfront even when I have offered. His quality of work is second to none.

Ouch! The thing is though, unless someone actually tries these out we'll never know. They may look quite good once they're installed.

I'm going to take the plunge and buy a set. There is only one way to settle this. I judge things based on their preformance and quality first, and appearance second. I'll probality get them in abut a week; they're not at the top of my priority list.

And if they don't work properly or they're incredibly ugly, I'll sell them to some unsuspecting sucker.
