hay man to be honest with you, i did my itr front end conversion by myself.. it is pretty easy of you know how to weld and it would save you that 1,000 dollars......the only difficult part is installing and uninstalling the usdm radiator support with the jdm itr radiator support. the $1000 is a little high priced, you might want to ask if they are going to paint the radiator support for you to match the rest of the car etc.......i beleive if you can change your oil, you could probably do your own body work IF you have general knowledge in body work. any questions go ahead and email me jrogangel@hotmail.com....thanks
I would expect to pay for about 10+ hours of labor......300 is definatly not enough to pay someone to convert a car that is not even their own car. i would expect a 600-900 dollar range without paint....

i had mine done for 3,000 from a shop. They found the front end, painted it, installed it and all metal parts.. call me a girl but majority of it was insurance money...i know someone who does installs if you're in the so cal area.
