Default blob conversion?

thinking of doing the blob front end conversion?
how easy is it and what would the prices be?

also what prices would i expect to sell my panels and light etc for?

the car its self



my brother has a blue blob and its drawing me to the conversion
yet i do like the bug front end now

Bugeye front panels don't fetch too much unfortunately second hand, and unless you can carry out the conversion yourself including any paintwork, it would be cheaper to sell and get a blob.

Personally I would leave as is, as fingerscooby says, nice ones are becoming a bit rare.

It is quite straight forward though.
