I found a body kit that I like more than all the others so i'll probably buy it this week. It says it's for the 95-96 eclipse but says it needs 97 front head lights. If I got the 97 lights would they hook up and mount the same? And it says the rear bumper needs to be modded so what would need modding? Just shaving the bumper? And how do the side skirts mount? Just plastic rivets like the stock ones? And the kit can be painted for under $400 right?

Well is $200 cheep for having a hood and bumper painted? The bumper was also plastic welded which was in the price. Cuz my moms costed $200 and their is no way any one could have made it look any better it looked brand new. So if he painted a hood n bumper for $200 how much you think he would charge for painting the 2 bumpers n side skirts?

I have no clue how much he would charge you. But in terms of having the hood and bumper painted thats not a bad price.

What im saying is, cost is cheap, so is the quality. They SUCK.
