98-01 conv. w/kit

nice tail end man, looks very clean.

Very nice.. 01-02 headlight conversions are a must for 98-00 owners . The paint job looks really good. I think the pics don't do it justice. Got any brighter shots of the car?

to answer everyones question on "how i got the ugly holes covered up"

i paid the bodyshop that did my car extra to shave my inner tails and those holes.
how he did it... it was with sheet metal(pretty sure thats the word) for the tails, and i dunno what for the fronts, but he didn't want to do it and i paid a good bit extra for it because those holes didn't fit my look for the car.

i would say if your paint is chipping, take it to another shop to get it done. a lot of shops around my way aren't good with painting fiberglass. fiberglass sucks. whenever urethane comes out that is what i will have.

I hear that,

had my front lip painted someplace and 3 days later it looked 30 years old. Took it back to them and that time they got it right. It still looks new.

Also, I like the 01-02 in that color. I'm glad you stuck with it because it makes the car look really clean.

I suggest you try to find a TRD trunk spoiler for your car. It'll finish it off really nice.

i'm gonna do a 98 to a 01 conversion in about 2 weeks..got any tips for me? also, would my 98 clear corners work with my 01 body? does everything bolt right up and does anybody have a tutorial on how to?

98-01 conv. w/kit

while the site was down my kit came in and i saved up the money to do the conversion and got it installed. i am very happy with the finished product, but i really want urethane fronts for our cars.

right now, i NEED a grille. not like what most every other kitted car has, but a nice, custom one that will hold up. a billet would be perfect. anyone who knows someone who will do custom grilles, EMAIL ME AT PRODIGY3006@knology.net

sweet. how did u get the r33 bumper without those ugly ass holes at the bottom?

you need 01 02 corners. you DONT need a new wiring harness. you need 2 9005 sockets, and then you will need 2 9006 sockets. the 01 headlights you buy will have bulbs, and after putting on a new front bumper you should be fine. i'd suggest letting a body shop do the body work, but you can wire the headlights yourself. if you need any help on the wiring of the headlights, email Maksim Zolin at mzolin@hotmail.com

MAKSIM ZOLIN also has a DIY of the whole conversion process, its pretty good, but i still had a couple back and forth emails with him to make sure i did the wiring right. he's very helpful and will help you with anything you need.

montana, where's pics of your ride?

i got the exact same car. i need to know how to do the conversion and how u get rid of the bottom holes? also what type of chip resistant paint or primer did u use on the front bumper. my fron bumper paint is chipping like crazy!

he hid them ;-)

It looks even better in person

I like the transformation. Nicely done job on that.

the car looks clean. most peoples don't take care of the car

yea, i'm always washing it. but the hardest part is keeping the interior unscathed

looks nice and clean bro!!!

damn talk about bck from the dead!!!

one word beautiful the car is perfect!

if I go terribly honest, I don't like the removal of the reverse lights... other than that, mad :-0

sheet! man i wish i should of done that conversion instead i did a cut and paste of my 98 bumper top to a 02 bumper bottom!! SHEET MAN!!

Way to dig up a 2 year old thread.

Damn the conversion looks real good. I did the conversion too, front end (bumper, fenders, hood) needs a paintjob still. You know how much it would cost for just the front end painted? I also got a dent on each rear door. I thought I could take the panels off and pop them out but they aren't as easy as I thought. Any recommendations? I'm actually going to post this in the forum also now that I think of it. Oh yea I have a 2002 prizm with a 01 corolla front end so my 98-00 bomex body kit totally will not fit. well probably jus the side skirts. I also was looking for a front lip or a lip kit. Then I thought maybe I could cut n past the kit. You think I should leave it alone and just stick with dropping my whole car?
Anyone can also email me at Streetvamp85@hotmail.com

Damn. I know you need help. You posted this near exact same thing in another thread here, and like 5 times on vvt-i. Geezuzz.

car is awesome. i love the shaved rear trunk.

do you have to change out the fenders for the conversion??

how much did u pay for yer trunk??
