    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    I believe Matt is referring to the volume of 360s and F430s, not the still-in-development 550/575 headlights. The 550/575 headlights still require a deposit at this time while the 360 and F430 headlights have been already produced.

    We have invited the owner of Founders Parts to join the forum. They are waiting on approval though to access the group. Sent you a message.

    Thank you for the input. We can ask the question if a close-to-OEM-as-possible solution could be made. While we do think the CF bezel is a nice subtle touch on a 20 year old design, we can still appreciate the original styling and the preservation of that.

    No offense taken and we can understand your skepticism. We're making the best with the information we have available. We're still in early development and will plan to share all images and videos we can. We have seen the other headlights come to fruition so we are still very optimistic as...

    No plans yet on a different trim bezel color. No fog lenses at this time. We're focused on the headlights first.

    This makes sense. It really comes down to the amount of pre-orders we can get.

    They will not have a limited shelf life. The housings will be made to automotive grade ABS plastic on the housings and polycarbonate for the lens. It should be no problem to store them for an extended amount of time.

    Normally it will only say "Founders", but the design isn't frozen yet, to our knowledge. We could ask for it to be removed with enough interested. The other text will stay though since they are DOT required markings.

    No problem. The other website is the manufacturer, Founders Parts. The owner of Founders Parts also owns a GT and was the original founder for some of the most popular aftermarket lighting brands that currently exist. He has now left the mainstream popular vehicle make space to work on his own...

    We can send you an additional invoice on your current pre-order for the new deposit amount. We are looking for the rest of the pre-order group here to confirm making the switch to the new price. We currently have 7 pre-orders and believe they are all members here.

    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    Hello all, We have talked with the manufacturer and they have agreed to reduce the minimum production order quantity to 50 sets, with a final cost of $8000 per set, but the pre-order terms will change. For this to happen, all pre-order participants will be required to pay $1000 up front...

    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    The new headlights will have a UV-Shield Hard coating on the outside. Generally inside fogging is due to off-gassing of internal components or failure of the headlight vent. Most all headlights have venting for the inside of to expel moisture. We can ask if there is any special treatment for the...

    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    Sure thing. The biggest detail is the exact fitment housing, with the same look and fit as the original, but with upgraded optics and enhanced internal aesthetics with the 1x1 weave carbon fiber inlay.

    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    At this time, unfortunately no. The manufacturer is requesting 100 pre-orders to justify tooling costs. Headlights in particular are very expensive to produce properly and we definitely do not want to get this wrong on the manufacturing side of things. We will inquire though to see if can be an...
