Default How far along are you?

Just wondering.....

Have you swapped out your fenders, bumper, bumper reinforcements already?

If you’re converting over from non-xenon to xenon then you’re going to need a harness. After that you’ll still need to “splice”…..

Email or contact Bobby: bobby@pelicanparts.com for information and pricing….

Hope this helps,

996shane - I was considering doing the same conversion until the costs started to push upwards of $5K and beyond. Do you still think it is a worthwile mod now that you are almost done with it?? Cost (if you want)??

Are the Turbo fenders a bolt on or do you have to get creative with them? Part of me says if I'm going to get a turbo bumper and upgrade to litho lights anyhow what's a couple of fenders going to cost on top of what I've already spent.

Jasmine Motorsport and Design911 sell the facelift kits for $3200 (2600 Euro). At that price with paint and install etc I start thinking how less of a PITA it would be to buy a nice set of HRE 543Rs w/PS2s. hmmmmm. Nice decisions to have to make.
