I know this has been discussed many times but I couldnt find the exact answer in the search.

Swapping my 04 bumper to 08 type s. What parts are needed other than bumper cover?

Need to know before I place the order.

 

well for the rear u dont need much.... for the front u need the fogs the grills the emblems if u get the body kit u dont need the lower grills.

 

Sorry I forgot to say its the front bumper. And I already have the Aspec kit.

So I need is the grille and emblems ? My original one cant be used?

 

hey scs15 when your done send me some pics and how much would you charge me to do the conversion for me

 

the conversion is simple you can do it in an hour or so but the fog wiring is a bit of a pain.... its all take apart and put back together everything is pretty much the same oh and you need to get the bumper paint as well. im sure thats a given

 

Ordered Type S bumper cover, grille and emblem, Type S aspec sides and rear for 875 shipped from Nevada to NY. Good deal?

 

omg! WOW that is a lot for just a friggin bumper and grill. I don't know if it is a good deal but it is a lot.

The only way I'd do this is if I got into an accident and the insurance was paying.

 

dude, re-read. thats not bad including shipping, and include aspec rear and sides, plus the grills. its not a bad deal. crappy part is that it still gotta be painted.

 

Yea bro defly need to read my post again.

And yea sucks the parts need to be repainted but oh well.

 

I did the a 07+ base conversion on mine. Also wired the OE fogs as independant DRL's, and wired the 07+ fogs independant w/ 5K HID kit.

Looks like you forgot about the 07+ lower fog housings. Those things are pricy, especially if you buy OEM. Depo makes aftermarket housings for a little cheaper.

For my 07+ fog conversion I used a HC Hilights wiring/relay kit, led cabin switch, and HID kit. It's all independant from the OE wiring.

 

yea the JDM fogs are like 300 instead of 400 and

 

for the fogs you can use damn near anything.. I'd use projector fogs from fleBay

 

yea i agree with al.... projector fogs add a very nice touch to the car IMO....try to find EVO IX fogs

 

Sorry to hijack the thread but I didn't want to start a similar thread. Does anyone know the exact parts I'd need for a Type-S Rear End Conversion. I got into a little accident and need a new rear bumper and instead of getting a base rear bumper and cutting open the holes again for the type-s rear lip I'm gonna get the type-s rear bumper.

has all the parts u need. just look up the bumpers section

 

I didnt forget just didnt want to shell out 400 bucks for fogs.
And I already have the Type S aspec front lip which has the grilles for fogs so all I need are the fog. It will be added later.

 

Yeah I rolled around for a few months with just the holes while I searched for the best deal. The OEM style housing does look really clean. There was another member here who retro'd projectors into the 07-08 housing. Looked pretty cool.
