The 99-00 Conversion.

Need:
Headlights
Hood
Fenders
Bumper cover
Taillights

This conversion costs a lot since it is in demand. and not worth it IMO. BUt, do what you want.

well i could get the ctr headlights ($600), oem 99-00 front bumper ($122.51), oem left and right fenders ($118.42 each), CF hood ($500) i just need to know if these are things i could put on myself or would i need to pay someone??

how hard would it be??

and i just want to do it because i will have to replace the front bumper and left ender if i bought it and eventually i would get a CF hood and ctr headlights and IMO i like 99-00 bumper and headlights better

well if it is black in color you can get those body parts from http://www.autobodypartsonline.com most likely cheaper. I got hit so that is where mine are most likely going to come from. Good luck, sounds like a good deal for the car. Just sell the parts of the kit you don't want. It should be fairly easy to take off.

Those are aftermarket part on that site even thought there are Honda part numbers listed. He said he wants OEM, so this wouldn't be the place to look.

Everything bolts up with no modifications whatsoever. All you have to worry about is uneven gaps, and for that all you do is re-adjust the body panels....it won't take long, and it will look like it came from the factory.

BTW: Please get the 99-00 taillights
