    I know I've seen ground effect lights before, and universal kits, and even know how to make my own from raw materials. I could make a set for probably $20. But this is about doing stuff as a community. Plus Moneymaker throws down awesome graphic designs from what I've seen so far.

    FYI if you want to make your own all you need is a can light, a specific type of lens, and a stencil over the lens. If you want color you either color that portion of the lens or include filters in your stencil. $45 a piece for custom ones is a very good price. The guy I know who makes them charges $60+.

    Ok I agree, I like the design, the rounded with color, I will submit that one and see if it can be done, as far as I know the "unit" is pretty small, but I will see if I can get a pic or specs on it, as soon as I find out if the color design can be done I'll get back with everyone, also for the comet guys post up something here you would like it to look like and I'll submit that pic also.

    Thanks, I'm welding in replacement sections of both of my rockers now and if I could see a picture of the unit, I might be able to maybe drill a pilot hole to accommodate the unit underneath my rockers or drill an access for wiring now while the rockers are still open :thumbs2:

    How low is you car going to be? You'd think, the closer to the ground they are, the smaller the projection? :hmmm:

    I was just looking at that, it would fit the bill and have the word Comet in it.
