What price should i be paying for lights and bumper to do the conversion. On ebay there is a set of headlight going for $500 for the pair, i have also been quoted $1100 for a painted brand new el xr bumper is this good. I am only interested in the genuine tickford front not venom ones

woh 1100 not a bad price for new painted bumper second hand will be around half that tho, the lights on ebay state they are new but they are broken seems a lil dodgey. plus i managed to get a brand new set for 650 inc postage, you will also need indicators which retail at ford for about 200ea, not a cheap conversion to do really

i paid about $900 for headlights and indicators from ozeparts.com.au. possibly a bit pricey but they're all new and proper ford gear. 1100 for a new and sprayed bumper is a good price too especially as it's new.
