Am toying with the idea of facelifting my car.
Really just for the headlights.
Was wondering what is needed.
A- just facelift headlights
B- facelift heaights and bumper.
C- above and wings and bonnet are needed also.

Wouldn't mind doing a or b but if I need to change everything I won't bother lol.

Remember someone asked this a while ago, there may be something in the search? Bumper and headlights is definite I believe. Bonnet I can't imagine it being different. Wings also should be the same perhaps.

Type in "facelift conversion" in the search

More results than just that one, seems to be some difference in wiring also!

That's a lot of work. Might be better to sell up and buy a facelift model....

I think I would go for it if I can get it done for under a 1000

Not very likely unless you can find 2nd hand parts, i found out an old email from Steels Honda and just the complete lights were very near £600 for the pair from way back 18 months ago....

Ok here is the cheapest way to facelif your car. Take your pamper to paint shop and ask them to fix the halls under the lights. They can fill the front part of the halls with something and spray it. So you have straight lights and dont have to change anything on it. Ill post a pic what I mean as soon as I get home

Post a picture. Sounds interesting.
I prefer look of the facelift projectors.
Plus I thought I may aswel get the front bumper aswel as I have mugen facelift lip and that would go on without any major mod'in.
