I saw two of the other cars he did on this forum and was so impressed I had to have it done to mine as well.
I called and spoke with Raj, "what a nice guy!". I might drop in and see how your car is doing, he also wants me to see a Turbo that he's going to get started on.

Thank you very much for the info!

Hi. Vince:
I'm going to do the same frontend, my front fender is already flared, do they have to change out my fender because of my old style front light, or they can custom cut to fit the 02 front light and techart front bumber without changing my fender?

Jess,
They are going to have to replace the front fenders and the front bumper to make the 2002 and above headlights fit in the front. You are also going to have to buy the 2002 and up light trays and harnesses. The fenders are quite cheap $350 a side. You can always sell your old fenders to someone.

Jess,

You'll have to swap out the fenders, gas flap, headlights, bumper, headlight trays and two headlight harness. It's not a cheap swap out especially if you go to Xenon......
