Custom Aluminum Silvia Headlight Brackets - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

*Jonnie Fraz* · 04-01-2006, 11:38 PM

I am starting this poll to find out interest in making these brackets for the Silvia JDM conversion. I am checking to see if there is enough interest for me to build a few sets of these brackets.
I am guessing that the will sell for $100 per pair shipped. They will be powdercoated more than likely simi gloss black.
I have posted up some pics and have had good feedback, but if I am going to produce them I need to know that there is a market.

Finished brackets

Fitment pics

Thanks guys

that's awesome fabrication. I don't have a sil-front, but if i did, those would be awfully tempting.

***S14DB*** · 04-02-2006, 01:17 AM

Are you bending them with your own hands? Cause that would teh roxors.

$100 is completely reasonable IMHO.

*DJPimpFlex* · 04-03-2006, 06:12 PM

yea $100 is worth it, but what are the benifits? Do you save any weight? I like the bling factor....

**ThatGuy** · 04-03-2006, 06:16 PM

I'm extremey interested.

zero.counter · 04-03-2006, 07:21 PM

Benifits of these brackets are mostly bling. They are both lighter and stiffer than OEM, but mostly I did not like the look of the OEM bracket and there was no right and left. As you guys know the stock brackets weigh next to nothing so weight savings are a couple of grams at best.

Thanks for the feedback

When will you launch the Titanium models?

Irukandji · 04-04-2006, 11:12 AM

screw titanium, where's the CF series?

khmerguy618 · 04-04-2006, 05:35 PM

i'd def. pick up a set of them when i get back.

*Jonnie Fraz* · 04-07-2006, 09:46 AM

To give an update on the brackets...I have a set a the powdercoaters, and after that they are being sent out to the test pilot. I am geared up for production, but I am waiting on the feedback I get from him.
The test pilot is a highly respected zilvian, so his feedback matters alot.

Thanks

Jonnie

I would be on the list for a set if they are ready before May (otherwise I'll be using a coathanger and some string, maybe duct tape)

*Jonnie Fraz* · 04-14-2006, 06:10 PM

Ok boys and girls just got these back from the powdercoater today, and got them shipped off to the test pilot.

I will be setting up my group buy in the next day or so. I more than likely will have an introductory price of $80 shipped for the first group.

Thanks for looking
