WTT Retrofitted Wrx,painted headlights

As the title says i am willing to trade my 2014 Wrx headlights that have been blacked out, retrofitted, and added with halos.

-The retrofit has been done with actual STi projectors and have added tsx clear lenses with it.
- does come with bulbs and ballasts.
*added info - TSX clear lenses which makes the cutoff more sharper,
-hid's are the OEM hid's used in the 2008=2014 and i believe even current STi,
-denso iv ballast,
-phillips 85122 d2s bulbs.
-they are not bi-xenon because like in the post they are pretty much STi headlights now

looking to trade it for your 2008+ wrx halogen headlights +900 (pretty much i took a lost off of the retrofit and blackout,halos.)

- if you're asking why for the sale it is because, i am a college student and i do not work right now so i do need the money.
Thanks for reading! pm me if you have any questions!

-the lights are plug and play you just bolt it on and plug it in.
-they are pretty much STi headlights that are blacked out, added clear lenses, and halos.

i'm not super firm but i'm just trying to break even on what i payed for this work done as in - materials, parts, labor. thats not even including the shipping yet!

but that the question is.. is bi-xenon kit installed?! hahaha!

i can budge but on nasioc a pair of wrx headlights retrofitted without halos or painting went for 900, so it does have to be reasonable though.

and i sent out the retrofit to jason at overland designs. (this was jason's original setup before he upgraded his and i was able to get my hands on his setup which was the actual STi projectors rather than the Retroquik kit from TRS[and they do perform better than the retroquik kit])

what would most people see a decent, realistic price? because on Nasioc a set of retrofitted headlights went for 800! so let me know guys. (and the headlight wasn't even painted or added halos yet)

i can get a set of oem subaru headlights for $615
a full bi-xenon projector retrofit kit is $515
and black paint is $5
so... i think tht if someone can spend $1135 for a brand new set of everything, and keep their oem stuff on the side just in case... then $1200 plus trade seems very high... especially considering your lights are not bi-xenon.

Just food for thought.

That makes sense I assume . But I was also thinking not everyone can do a retrofit themselves that do want it . Like I know I couldnt . I can do 1000 flat

GLWS.
I probably wouldnt pick up a set with halos either... so these are basically blacked out stock sti headlights to me.

Im sure there are people out there willing to spend a little scratch to get an already completed setup.

Thanks .and pretty much but stock sti headlights do cost more . This is just at a fraction of it . This is like 200$ more than the just retrofitted only headlights that were traded on nasioc

Actual STI trim headlights have leveling motors in them. Do the WRX ones have them also?

When I had my Limited WRX it did not have the motor. I think only STi's have it.
