Did you mean $13000?

From what I can see, the front bumper and daytime LED alone would be 1300.. then you've got fender, airbag, door, possibly suspension parts... oh dear god, that's gonna be a lot.

Finished converting to Nismo! I am very pleased of how it turned out. Let me know if anyone have questions regarding the conversion!

Yes, finally got these darn Motordyne test pipes installed today!

If it weren't for the demon bolt on the passenger side, it would have taken about an hour and a half from start to finish to do the swap. However, thanks to that damn demon bolt on the passenger side, it alone took 3 hours and 45 minutes to remove! Yes, just that one stupid a$$ bolt! And this is with a fully capable shop at my disposal, including a full size car lift, full array of air and electric power, impact and hammer tools, hand tools, and a good friend with many years experience working on all vehicles of all types.

Anyway, they're on, there a healthy bump in power, much improved throttle response, and a wonderful sound! Now I can finally resume my tuning with Seb on the EcuTek for some real power gains.

Thanks! I bought the entire front assembly (including under tray and inner fender liner) for $700 total (total of 11 parts). Rear bumper cost me $450 (total of 2 parts). The optional LED light was $320. My paint for both front and rear came out to $550. Let me know if you want more detailed info about the conversion

Attempted to get her presentable for the tornado benefit car show before running out of daylight. Miserable failure... She is clean, I think.

That doesn't look tooo bad! I have LED bulbs for those parking lights just sitting here. I don't mind the amber so I left well enough alone (the LED bulbs were free with an order I placed somewhere along the lines. But seeing that making me rethink it - maybe I'll give them a chance and see how it looks in person.

My (2016) DRL's stay on all the time now, so those would too if I did the swap. Always figured it'd look like upside down exclamation points but your pic is swaying me.

I need more mods on the list like a hole in the head right now though lol
