    Cool My 350x headlight guards

    Hello I'm a machinist and trying to start a side hustle. Want to make money on my trikes and like working with metal. I made myself a headlight guard, and I like them allot and trying to sell them. Got a red, blue, and white on ebay right now. gets plenty of views but hard to sell. Just because I like them dooesnt mean other people do lol. I seen old honda ones were 200$+ for busted up crap. I just lowered one to 125$. I got allot of time invested on the jigs and it takes more time then I planned to make them, but tell me what u guys think.

    I like the red one with the red headlight bucket - it's more subtle. The blue one and white one are a little aggressive for my taste. I think your price is fair; just not sure how big of a customer base you are dealing with. Now if I only I had a 350X so I could become a customer!

    Yeah the red nice, blue for some reason gets way more views. I use eastwood powders, but they didnt have a nice matching red. Ordered a red from prismatic powders off the Honda colors. It doesnt match the old red as good as I hoped, but probably would the newer models. If they start to sell at all I want to send some for chrome. I plan on making guards for the 250r and 200x, It gives me a good reason to keep hanging onto my bikes. Can make money off em! Got plans for banshee bumpers and raptor bumpers too. Exhausts the end game but got a ways to go.

    Nice work. They're like goggles for your headlights.
