Default KT Project? calling all JDM experts

I recently picked up a set of KT project Crystal inner tails from a member on another site. I've see these once before, but I'm curious about them. How rare are they? I can't seem to find too much info on them other than a set of sidemarkers for an s14 made by them here: http://garage-parts.com/pr_0093.html

Any info would be appreciated, Thanks!

this is an uber rare find. I have a pair of smoked ones however, which I'm the only person I've seen with those. how much did you pay if you don't mind me asking? smoked were $450 I believe is what I paid.

Zstuddin, you were the only person I recall having them. I got mine for $30 shipped from a guy off my.is who didn't like the way they looked and apparently didn't know he had something special. I knew they were semi-rare, so i jumped on them. Thanks for the responses guys!

I'll break it down even more. see the 2 part numbers? mine has an "s" at the end for smoked. Also just use common knowledge. 21,000 yen to us dollars is $268.47. Numbers are right on the front of the box!?!?

Add that to the rarity, definitely a legit jdm part. I'll tell you the reason why you don't see them...because they are so expensive! For some reason people think sard is the only real inner tails?
