has anybody done the conversion of the front end if so pic please

 

it's been done. search for @cUr@-TL he did it.

 

its not possible. it cant be done.


















































































j slash k. search for it

 

why do you need a pic... wont it look jus like an 03?

 

 

Dominibean has recently done it, you can pm him for some info.

 

LOL. i was thinking the same thing.. But fiftyfive also did it, he has some before and after pictures also.

 

Yes they have. You need hood, fenders, headlights, front bumper, alot of misc parts also
Just a quick question?? Why pics? It will look JUST like the 02-03.

 

If you do it, will you sell me one of your fenders?

 

you will need a hood, fenders, grille, headlights, front bumper, taillights
expect to shell out about $2-3k

 

i don't even know why i asked for pix. but what i really wanted to know was exactly what misc parts are needed and how much would it cost not including painting the car. parts only

 

I'm thinking of putting BMW M5 badges on my TL. Will that make it an M5

 

You probably wanted pics of a 99-01 TL in progress of a 02-03 Conversion.

 

someone PM me to remind me to post pics and i'll post em up tomorrow, i gotta jet for now.

 

i found this thread and fiftyfive had done this to his 99' TL

very very clean...

 

i think in september i am gona do the conversion or maybe a little sooner. going to work with a budget of 1K.

 

1k? isn't that a little optomistic? i mean, wont you have to alter something with the radiator fan or something to make everything fit? so with parts and labor you'll be over that amount.

 

ntm, you will have to paint the parts

 

Hai, (redryder83)'s car








and because it'll prolly be asked, blaze sides and rear apron

 

ok went to my uncle's body shop and called where he order's from and these are the prices

hood $245
bumper $144
fenders $100 each
headlights $96 each (going to get them from ebay insted $100 for the pair)
fog lights $ 88 each (dont know where i'm getting these from yeat )
grill $ 84 (want orignal so ebay as well for the same price)
acura emblem for the grill (dealer only they said so dont know yeat)

as far as labor goes well i dont pay none cuz its uncle's body shop and i still have paint left over from when i painted the car when i got it like three months ago.

i am starting to think that if i dont find the parts cheap from ebay i still wont go over $1200 as long as these are the only things i need. if some one has a list of things which are needed please post them.

 

what other mods do you have done to your car? from your AV it looks pretty stock, I mean, dont you want to like drop it/rims or something first before doing a whole front end conversion?

 

hey klepto,where would one find a blaze rear apron.I like the look a lot it puts the WW to shame.Also a lot better than my oem rear.Thanks

 

i have already done alot but i'am waiting to get done so i can post some before and afters. it should be done by the ross docks meet.

 

If your car is pretty much stock why dont you just sell it and get a 02-03 and save the hassle and possible headaches! And get a TYPE-S!

 

yea fuck the 03 conversion....major waste imo...

i like the 99-01 look too, can make it look cleaner if u clean heads, and do a custom grill

 

Simply Killin It.. Lovin the whole kit but the rear/sides is what really stood out!!! Very nice whip!!

 

auctlly i have already spent a lot of money and its not stock right now . i am just waiting to complete everything so i can post some before and afters pix soon.
