Re: How can I get my 96 Eclipse to look like a 99 Eclipse?

bumper $100-150

headlights $150 - 300

Total so far, $250 - 450

You think it's going to cost $550 to paint a bumper? $1000 is way to high of an estimate. I'd say $600 tops if you do your footwork and find good used headlights.

Did I list a hood? No.

I did forget 97+ foglights in my list. That is if your I/C piping allows for foglights to be installed.

Re: How can I get my 96 Eclipse to look like a 99 Eclipse?

since you will be getting 97-99 headlights, go with the halo angel eyes. And as for paint, you just have to wait and see...the GS-T spoiler I installed, I had to wait for a red one to go up on auction. When I sold the GS, and got a GS-T Spyder, I had to wait all over again for a red painted spoiler, and 2 months later, I had it for $200 shipped. The trick is to CONSTANTLY surf the web looking for deals... I have such good luck that I am a firm beleiver of the fact that contstant ongoing research will get u what u want at a good price. aeythankyouuu..

w/ the conversion your going to need the side skirts too, the 95-96 ones curve under the car where the 97-99 corner off, i see cars for sale and that is the first way i tell what part of the generation they are because people easily forget the difference there, your talking maybe another 100$ to get those
