Default JDM itr conversion: buy parts separately or complete?????

probably been asked before but.... searching is not my friend..

just wondering what's best.
to buy the parts separately or complete?
what will be cheaper or will it pretty much add up to be the same??

also. ive seen alot of clips that aren't in good condition.
are there any places that gurantees the condition?

and is it worth it to pay the extra 500+ for the HID headlights??

help would be greatly appreciated..
thanks!!!

Oh my!!! Buy the parts complete as a package... it will be a nightmare trying to track down the little things that you need that people have broken of mysteriously lost in shipping or whatever.

I would buy the black housing no matter what cuz they look way better... as far as the hid its up to you. You can get retrofit kits for around 200$ maybe less, it might be easier in the long to just buy the hid lights, depends on your automotive background and skills.

Look on ebay theres always a ton that are shipped out from malysia or whatever that need your american currency lol. Ususally pretty cheap. Body work is gonna be needed no matter what so it doesnt really matter if its scratched up or dented.

Yes it does, try finding some random grommet, that fell off your headlights in shipping or some stupid jdm clip you cant find. Its not worth the hassle i would never recommend it.

At least get a complete front end, then swap out what different things you want, like hid headlights, or type r lip, stuff like that. Just dont try to peice it together.
