I think i was reading somewhere radiator support as well

[ICV 73C]

yeah some guy said something about radiator support but i wanna get into abit more depth with this. and what other options are there ? ej8 front ?

[Zdster]

You dont need the radiator support, you just need to notch it out (according to what I have read).

You will need:

headlights
bumper
bonnet
fenders
grill

yeah you can keep the support...just gotta make abit of mods to it.

[steve88]

its not worth it the mod, it'll cost you about $1000 to do it. probably cheaper (maybe even about $500) if you can source second hand parts, and find damaged panels and repair them yourself

or just collect lego parts from wreckers.
theres a guy running around my area with heaps of different colours on his facelifted ej lol

[steve88]

itll still cost u around 500 bucks for lego parts, no wrecker will let a bonnet go for less than 200 unless its rooted

The car Dy is prob talkin abt is my car, cuz my car is multi-coloured and i drive so muchs around esp cabra n canley vale/ heights! newaiz im doin the same thing... all the parts needed is just:

* front bumper bar
* grill
* fenders
* headlights
* bonnet

the cost is abt close to $1000 or not even.. but ive got some of my parts very cheap... so yeahs! when u get all the parts and start installing, u will see dat theres goin to be a few cutting from the bumper or/ and grill i 4got lols... if u gonna get angel eyes, it maybe different to the normal 99-00 headlights in a form of installing them or just gap difference...

newaiz keep in mind!
