I'm glad there is finally some momentum on this again. Ive been waiting since this was created to see this happening, and its finally looking to be somewhat realistic...

if the part is made to the same quality if not better of the original, then thats one thing. if youre buying cheap chinese knock offs that fit like shit and require 10x more work, plus made of inferior quality materials then thats what drives things down. |

THIS. If someone copies a TE37 but makes it better and stronger and lighter than Volk does, i'll buy that in a heartbeat.

See; Some off y'all rock XXR's and Rotas then get real wheels and delete all the pictures of when you used to rock the rep wheels....but that's none of my business. If there is a QUALITY replica of an aero part that fits as good as OEM and costs significantly less and is the style you want, buy it! The problem is the pandemic that is SHITTY knock off parts that fit like garbage then people change like they're shot callers *DUMPSTER DIMENSIONS*

Here is a rough prototype 3d print of the light. I was going to make a mold of the originals but I thought this method would be good if people want them to fit different lights inside etc.
Will update again with a more refined prototype. i'll be posting updates on my instagram, if you want to follow via your phone. @casale_design ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Before even thinking about that, I am more concerned about which lights should be used inside. Since the original IPF lights are no longer made in that size, the only other light that would fit are these Hella Micro FF fog, to get two of them in there. L: 120mm by about H: 86mm is the size needed to fit two square lights in there- the depth doesnt matter as much. ![]() ![]() http://www.tirerack.com/lighting/det...160406163353:s two of these are $130, so 4 total would be $260 plus shipping. That would just be for the lights inside... Anyone have any other options of square type lights to fit?

So anything else will not fill up the space inside as well. Keep in mind the lights are mounted offset, one more forward then the other one.

The ones hella makes come in 2 styles, one with a reflector cap over the bulb ( fog) and the other without ( driving light) - not sure if it is too bright for street use? Made for offroad trucks.
Im open to any other ideas, led lights or similar.

hella 90mm are the best bet but they are round. They have a BI LED version which you could use as low/high and then a rectangular light for spot beam, flood, or fog on the inside of the light.

Just sell me the housing and I'll put my own lights in there.
Why not use an H4 bulb? I think that's the one - it's low and high beam in one. And you can source them pretty cheaply in HID or LED.

They are also about 2x too large and will be poor performing.
