Cost to Custom Mold S15 Headlights?

[InfamousEclipse]

I would love to do an S15 Silvia headlight conversion on my 96 Eclipse. I would have to pay $200 or so for projectors anyway with the Stillin front bumper right? (since mine is a 96 there is a gap, corect?) Well S15 headlights themselves are about $800 but about how much would it cost to mold it into a Stillen front bumper? And the Stillen front bumper is fiberglass right?

stillen front is urethane. s15 headlights require you to mod your hood and fenders aswell to modding the front. a pretty penny is what you are looking at spending.

Do you know an estimate? Around $500? Seems like a lot considering I dont see myself being in shows, just want to express my creativity with my daily driver

Just to mold it? no way.... #### that

U will have 2 repaint the fenders cuz ur grinding em down, and maybe part of the hood. u dont mold em, U fit em!!!!

also you have to buy the actual s15 headlights...

 

[KRAZYKOREAN]

About $1526.23 from my calculations...

^^^^ above the 1,000 mark. Is it really worth it?Thats the price of a new hybrid turbo!

i love the look of the headlights. but i doubt i will ever be able to afford them. and yes upwards of 1 grand u are looking to spend. dont forget the cost of the headlights are close to that too.

There is a member who has a blitz front bumper with s15 ligths molded in.

The lights themselves are 700-800 dollars.

its probably not worth it if you dont want to show it, but I can do it, body fabrication isnt that hard, i am doing alot to my car right now,

I molded nsx vents into the side, molded the side skirts in, shaved the handles, and all the lil seems like on the roof(that lil rain gutter lookin thing and the lil line on the hatch thats on each side of the window) all the washer nozzles, wipers, the line that goes across the car door, antenna and wing. I am also doing another car too, for someone, but I am just molding the side skirts and the rear bumper.

the work aint cheep though, you might just think "its just headlights" but there is alot of work that goes into "just the headlights" just to make them line up right, like to even get them to bolt in. the right way would be to weld in the radiator support off of a sylvia,( but that would also take alot of work)

Its a tight look and idea but i wouldnt do it for just an everyday driver car, ad you dont plan on showing it
