You're looking at close to $1500 for just parts. I'd say closer to $3500 - $4000 after all is said and done.

I've done it. You need Hood, bumper, fenders, headlights, and rad support. Just don't take your car to s sh!tty shop like I did, or you car will look like crap like mine.

Probablly around 700 in parts. I was CHARGED 500 dollars in labor but i had some problems with the body guy so the labor was free.

I didn't add a fuse. I just hardwired up the headlights. The lows turn off when the highs come on, but i can fix that easily with some diodes in the relays..... (I think) I haven't looked at the wiring diagram lately. Plus you have to wire in new turn signal sockets.

You can definitely tell it is off. The fender to door body-line doesn't match up, which also makes the fender sag, which in turn creates more problems.

Way off? I got that quote from my local Honda dealership. So, you can claim what you want, and be insulting.
