#43022, "99 front end conversion, what did everyone pay?"


          

I know im going to need the front bumper, 97-99 headlights, and 97-99 foglights. What did everyone pay to get their front bumper painted and get it put on? I have a 95 kona blue eclipse, so I cant just buy a used front bumper that is the same color as my car.

bumper-since you cant get one that already matches your color.. i would say 100-150bux for a used bumper in good shape.. or you can find them on ebay new and unpainted for liek 160ish

headlights-about 125-200 used in good condition, or about the same for new projectors

fogs-about 50 in good condition

as for the painting, i would imagine for a quality job, around 200-300bux


^^what once was^^


^^what is now.. and permanently^^

they didnt make kona blue in 97-99 so he cant get one his color.

heres what i paid

front bumper 215 plus 35 shipping
headlights 150 shipped
paint 200

just put it on yourself, its rather easy

paint will be more if you buy a used bumper because they have to prep it more and take the old paint off. probably around 300

I have the black projectors with the sing projector in it. not sure what brand, but off ebay. It is a pain to install, because i had to put certain bolts on (the ones in the back) first to get the others to line up right. and on one, the top bracket broke off, but that was my fault. otherwise, they were great. i got some h1 and h3 xenon bulbs, stuffed'em in there, aligned them and they are fine with me. even if my lowbeams shine out farther than my highbeams because i havn't figured out how to adjust them yet emoji i think they look phat.

Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related.
Step 1: Put down everything in your hands.
Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it.
Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you.
If not. Go here: here

If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.
