$330 bucks for shipping though, and they fold the bumper up were you need to use a heat gun to fold it back out? Kinda risky.

140 + 330 shipping isn't bad for an entire front bumper including fogs.

They fit, you just have to custom fabricate them, and that ebay post is old, it's been up for almost a year now just under different user names lol.

Those fogs only fit the JDM 99-01 bumper, the USDM 99-01 bumper has a different shape where the fogs go. Also it has that cool parking antenna thingy...for show.

If this is true, I wouldn't risk getting it shipped like that.

I saw this item for sale a while back but it was gone last time i checked. Guess its back up again.

I got my inspire steering wheel from this seller as well. Very good seller. They wrapped it very very well. about 10-12 layers of bubble wrap and tape.

ive dealt with many used bumpers before and let me tell you, its no fun dealing with warped/ folded bumpers. its very hard to get things realigned perfectly.

i remember seeing a post in the market for the front end at a low price as well. why not just buy there instead of japan. also you have to remember you cant use the usdm re bar. you need the jdm one as well.

ill try to find the thread of the sale, but try searching "conversion" in the mean time

For the visors, I waited a month before I got them.

There's an OEM lip for them. I wanted to try to fit my USDM OEM one on there. Like a retrofit.

No front license plate FTW.

Has anyone tried modifying the first gen RL fog lights into 99-01 TL? I just posted in the RL section, to see the measurements of their fog lights. I think it would look nice...possibly.

you cant fold a plastic bumper and expect it to come back to normal shape with a heat gun, it would be warped like crazy and it would crease.
