Default AEV corner guards with LED tail lights

I just got off the phone with David from Northridge 4x4 and asked him about the corner guards that he started a feeler thread elsewhere on the forum. It was in the manufacturer/vendor part of the site and I don't think it got the hits it could have. The long story short is he needs 100 people interested in AEV corner guards with cutouts for round LED tail lights (like litedots that wol has on his TJ). I REALLY want a set of these so this is my effort to get more people looking at it. I think I'm going to post something on AEV's forums also. Whatever it takes!

The original thread is here:
https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/sponsoring-manufacturers-vendors-check-out-cyber-monday-specials-24/led-rear-corner-gaurds-24432/

The reason I want these so bad is that I have firsthand knowledge of how weak the corner area is. When the tail light or license plate bracket takes a hit it will push the corner in instead of just smashing the light housing/bracket. My estimate for metal and paint work was $1100. I'm not going to pay this amount twice. The stock bumper just flexes and allows the light and plate bracket to be vulnerable.

Check out my damage here:

The pics don't show the damage as well as they could. If anyone wants I can take better photos.

I agree 100%! I think the problem isn't the interest, its the visibility. 100 people shouldn't be that hard to find.

I want a set without the License plate cutout, and the stock taillights, I dont think that is going to happen.

So I would be interested in a set of these depending on the placement of the LED cutout. If it was over where the stock taillight cut is, and if i could adapt them to hold the stock light housings, then I'd buy a set.
