JDM front end conversion

I know some people were planning on doing this and Passwordjdm already did. my question is, is there a kit out for this conversion? i think passwordjdm was talking about putting a kit out for about $3000, but i dont see it on their site. please dont say "use the search button" or "the search button is helpful", because i already searched and decided to start a new thread on this. any info would help.

$3000 is ridiculous, come to Canada and buy the parts, I think you only need front fenders, bumper, headlights (HID), rear trunk, rear taillights and rear bumper... well anyways it is about $3000...

the conversion will only fit the sedan. i just want to do the front. maybe i could get someone in Canada that could hook me up with some prices. i think you need fenders, hood, bumper, headlights, and some mounting brackets for the headlights.

My guess, its about 300 bucks per fender, hood is probably around 420ish, headlights, 150 a piece.. front bumper, 300 bucks..headlight mounts, 60 bucks..

little plastic liner...after taxes, id say somewhere around 2,000.

(You still need to paint everything)

If I were to have the sedan I would get the back converted, I hate how it looks.

Don't know why but it reminds me of the Ninja Turtles.
