I think someone here planned to do the conversion but decided against it after realizing it was an undertaking.
I do not recall the member, sorry.

Just sell your car and but an F Sport. You’ll spend more on parts converting than you will a whole different car. There is a lot more to it than bumpers and wheels.

I’m new here and already sick if these threads

Half of those are typos and the other half subjective.

My point remains. Front bumper conversion - poser. Full conversion - idiot. Your comment - KYSF.
