e46 facelift conversion

[minivan]

Hi e46 kakis...Seen a few adds where e46 1.9s have been converted to the facelift front. I guess it would require changing the hood, fenders, front bumper maybe and the light clusters.... Anybody have experience in this? Is it a simple bolt on or are there modifications involved? How much RM would it cost? Where do people do this conversion? Just wondering and wanting to find out more actually... never know, might be gatal to perform such a conversion, if money suddenly fall from the sky or something ...

If u r looking at a facelift conversion, replica type...plus Depo lights.

It shd cost you approx RM2k plus all in. A simple trip down Sunway...Redzone, Motorsport Division and even Racing Fitt will yield you more infos..

Happy Modding :top:

Hi benjichriss88,

I've seen before at motorsport division, sunway. One of the staff there changed to FL hood without changing the headlights (non facelift). He mentioned that minor modifications needed but do not know what are they.

Appreciate if you can share with me which shop can do this job together with the wiring. I want to do it with exact facelifted lighting scheme.
Thanks in advance. :wink:
