He said that he and Evodave could not agree on some things and that he was not going to make any for Evodave, although he was not opposed to building some more. He had the one he built for Evodave on his desk. He said that Evodave may have another shop working on these, but the ones in the pics that he designed and built are not going to be them.
looks like EvoDave's version may take a while.

I seen this on a friend of mines Supra, a few weeks ago, and thought about doing it to my car... and here someone already did it. But I thought, I don't want to mess up my HID lamps

They don't mess up your HIDs, they replace the fog light only.

I would jump all over that if my car didn't have foglights. Looks clean. Will this include a pipe all the way back to the filter area? Talk about cold air intake. (Sorry if the question's already been answered. Too lazy to sift through 14 pages.)

I have fog lights too, but I never use them unless I want to look cool, and going fast looks much cooler than fog lights, so I'll be trading them in for an intake.

Sun Auto/Garage HRS makes the genuine ported headlight for around the same price as this. Its the same one off the Cyberevo, but they actually sell them to the public.

Yeah, I know, but good luck finding them. And it's not like evodave doesn't know a thing or two about evo headlights.

Are you sure about this? The way this all got started was because someone posted a pic of the Cyber Evo and people wanted to know about the duct. When member here tried to buy one from them they told him no. So a few of us built some different takes on the Cyber evos' duct. I wonder what changed their minds?

500whp.com told me he could get them for $1000.00 for a pair of new headlights with the duct installed in the driver's side. But so far he has been unable to get them.

Yes they do exist, and they are cheaper than 1000. I have one on order for my car (to go w/ my voltex widebody). But due to the rules about posting things for sale by non-vendors, I (until the vendorship gets completed for J-OnDemand) cannot post any further information about prices, and where you can find them, on this open thread. I just want to be fair for everyone else.
