true true - lets not label a negative comment against any person or company tho
Anyway , it would be very interesting to price say a brake conversion or other face lift , or even an entire car from new spare parts. the price would be (i bet) double what the car costs new lol
hMm.. for new parts i rkn price is reasonable. but i wouldnt pay that much for OEM facelift headlights, def. try n locate a pair of seconds. I've seen some headlights (non DIY'd) sell for <$50.00
GET AFTERMARKET PARTS. cheapest way for facelift conversion with new parts. or just go honda wreckers, they have plentyful of stuff. but you'll also need the radiator support as it different to pre-facelift.
i recently did a facelift for my mates ek1. heres what it cost me for parts.
these are NEW AFTERMARKET parts. [not oem, but near oem fitment ]
- headlights NEW - $ 80 bux each
- guards NEW - $40bux each
- bonnet new - $90bux
- front bar new - $80bux
- radiator support new - 80bux
plus labour. cheap as chips.

got a pic of the fitment? ive seen a few pics of aftermarket facelift and the fitment sucks balls.. there was roughly a 1.5cm gap from the bumper to the fender and a 1-1.5cm gap between the headlights and the bumper...
kinda dodgy look...
