depending on the shop you go to it should be like 1gs or so for the tail conversion and painted and yes you can do those lights. I think someone before on this board did those skyline tail lights.

Many people are gonna diss you about conversions because I am going down that path right now but dont bother me. Me and fixedtl are the few ones on here that actually encourage conversions since both of us have done quite a few things instead of the traditional kit and drop. THere is a few people on here that will be helpful but most will givey ou some BS like WHy do this and that to your TL. Just wanna give you the heads up.

my fault guys. I thought he made a cover its the actualy conversion. THe conversion houldnt run you more than 1g in labor. headlight conversion is running about 1.5G in labor at shop but I get my for cheaper or you can do it yourself. I thnk it looks good. That tail light is gonna give you a very very sporty look and that is frowned upon by many of the people here. NOT ME. I acutally like it since I think the TL ot TLS have very good potential of been a sporty ride but not many people here because they think its likea 100g luxury sedan or sumthing. GO FOR IT> WE need more people doin CRAZY ass mods on this site. DO IT DO IT!!!!
