This should be moved to the lighting section...

I'm already attempting this on my car, have a look.

Depends if you do it yourself or use a body shop. I'm doing it myself. The M6 headlight is approx $350 each and the wiring harness in really hard to find. You can probably make your own harness if you figure out what bulbs you need. Then if you use a body shop, you have to think about the cutting of the fender and repositioning of the Rad. The fibreglassing, sanding, priming, painting, etc... It's not cheap... I can't even guess how much that labour would cost. If you were a MX-West member I'm sure some of the local members would gladly give you a hand or advice.

It's best to get the lights and the new front bumper at the same time. That way you can do it all at once and then paint all of it at the same time. It's soooo much easier. Since the bumper is going to be modified anyways, to fit new lights, you can get other front bumpers like '96 civic ones and modify them on. Check out Chris' car on the MX-West Site. He used a civic bumper and put MP5 lights on.

Heres the MX-3 with the S2000 conversion. It is the hottest MX-3 I've ever seen, in my opinion. Even hotter than the one in 2F2F. No offense to jademx3 or whatever his name is. His is hot, this ones hotter. S2000 Conversion
