Please do a quick search in future...
Parts will cost ~1500 to buy,
You can easily install these yourself, but if you pay a shop to do this, allow ~500.
Paint will cost another ~1000-1500, pending on the workshop.
In total, ~3500-4000.

roughly 2.5k all up =D depends where u wana go cheap in ...
cheap paint or buy damaged parts =D
mine cost $1250 for all parts, i bought some parts sperate
Depends where and who you buy from, have a good look, or be patient and wait like i did and things pop up!
Serioiulsy consider doing it yourself because its really not worth paying up to $4000 in the end for someone to do it!

Only ever seen 1 JDM teg here in Adelaide, pretty sure it was genuine tho, 4-door type-R.

Have a ring around at your local wreckers
look in the traders section, theres usually conversions in there....

Agreed.:)
JDM front 1.5k parts/1-1.5k to spray/install. SO mim around 2.5k-4k .

yeh. think of how quick your car can go if you spend 2.5-4 on it. JDM front is overdone and over played. i had one and wasnt over excited about it, sometimes i would walk out and think it was a prelude.

Haha in my case, i drive a gsi (yeah dnt giv me crap) n i dont wana bother with engine mods atm coz its pretty much pointless n im plannin 2 buy a DC5 in bout 2 years. I wana rice it up a bit but i hate kits, so i was considerin doin the front conversion coz it really makes ppl wonder what it is. 2 grand sounds like a decent price 2 me.
Save the money to buy parts for ur DC5 mate :)
