Default Hawkeye front end conversion

At some point early in the new year I fancy changing my blob to a hawk. What's the cheapest do you think you can get the whole conversion for not including labour just parts?

Cheers Marc

sorry slightly off topic but id be interested in your blob front? price dependant may offset some of the cost on your hawk conversion.

if you do it drop me a line mate.

Most folk sell the hawk front ends for 1500-1800 ,

Might be cheaper if u can buy the parts seperatly,

Complete with bulbs and ballasts,

Got a good quote of £1400 for the set, like you said though sourcing individually might help. I'll keep the lights in mind

I've got a bumper (minus grills, fog light covers etc) on eBay at the minute. Take a look and see what you think. It's on at £350 but I will accept an offer on it. http://bit.ly/1fJ9pDt

Not in a position yet mate, do you drill out the slam panel from the bit you've cut or does that whole part get swapped over?

I know right! Especially when you find something that's been on for about a minute and is already snapped up.

It's easy to do if done before I did message offering the parts and fitting for you at a reasonable price.
