both headlights 340
both fenders 355
both corners 44
JDM amber signals - 150
aftermarket bumper (URAS kouki type 2) - 440 (raretrick.com)
CF hood - 400 shipped
total parts $1729 plus shipping for the bumper, and for the other stuff it will be around 1900-2000 total for parts.
this guy can give my car a paintjob for 800. so that brings it to 2800.
anything i am missing? anyone can get parts for me cheaper? i was also looking into a kouki conversion from someone but they do not reply fast, if at all [mr. apple..where u at?]

well i got sides already...but even if i wanted other side skirts i couldnt afford it. i got an insurance check for $2130 today, and i think $700 or so out of my pocket for a kouki conversion is decent. anyone wanna cut me a deal here? i got $$$ for u!

didnt mean to make it sound like i wanted to be hooked up. what im trying to see is if this is decent or not. to me it is, but i dont know if anyone else out there CAN give someone they dont know a little break in price because we all need one.

You're missing a lot.
1. bumper reinforcement
2. grille - might as well get the jdm kouki one
3. bumper stays (L&R)
4. Upper retainer
that'll cost you another 250. you also need hoodpins for that cf hood and you need to rewire the low beams.

what are the bumper stays? thanks
Are you taking opinions are what your doing? if not dont read this-> if you can;t get it cheap thats a big waste of money if u dont need all that replaced.

They are two metal brackets that bolt onto the reinforcement, then bolt onto the upper retainer. This keeps the retainer from sagging....which keeps the bumper from sagging.
project_240 - You will have to modify the reinforcement to make the bumper and turn signals fit. But I'm only going by what everyone that has a JDM bumper said (to me atleast).

thanks guys so if i get the upper retainer, stays, and the reinforcement, i think i will be set. i dont think i need a grill because this is the bumper i am getting...looks like they include the grill part already

i think i will just forget the cf hood and get a normal one so i could save $$....if i get all that i am still looking at around 1700 or so for parts. looks good to me, how about you guys?
