i think the only person that has done it on their own is yeah ls, he does everything himself. Honestly, it's some hard work to do it yourself, if it's not perfect, nothing will line up right.

I second that. Stuff like the exterior is extremely important to me.

Not a simple op from what I've seen.......pay the money so it doesn't get screwed up and you don't have to feel like a fucktard (D language there)

That seems to be the general consensus in this forum.

I didn't think it was so hard.
If I get a body shop to do it how much will it cost?
The only reason I am getting the jdm conv. is because some f#cking a$$hole
backed into my front bumper and took off while I was getting coffee.
Everything is coming out of my own pocket.

If your hood, lights and fenders werent damdaged... its not worth it to the JDM conversion. Why blow out almost 4 gs when you can spend 500 and have the front fixed? 300 for the bumper cover and 200 for paint and labor. Spliter too? 400. So for 900 vs 4000+... I know a ton of ways to spend 3500 bucks on speed parts...
