Can..around 12-15k for the whole surgery..

front headlamps, bonnet, side panels..rear lights, rear light module...

Mike does alot of conversions...from what i know.

 

[TripleM]

Nuke,
A few shops have done the conversions ...

My advice is, if u dont intend to keep the car for long, dont bother face lifting it...waste of money..

 

[Azrielsc]

Or if u kenna accident (touch wood), its better to FL your car, since u are paying for the repairs anyway!

 

[Nuke]

Ok. Thanks bros. Agree wif TripleM. Yea, 12-15 is way too ex. Tot a $5k would be ok.
hahahaha...must be a carbon fibre bonnet. hahahaaha *kidding la*

Nuke Bro,

err, if u buy all the brand new stuff f PML and u pay PML labor costs n sprayin costs, then maybe it will hit 12-15K. but many mod shops (like Ah Mike) hav lots of spare facelifted bumpers lying all around as the owners hav changed to the M-aero bumpers or others. So these wil b goin for a song. also, some vain pple will also change to xenons, resultin in their facelifted lights useless as well.....

The end costs (incl labor) may be easily half of the abv costs. Check wif Mike.

Cheers

Was last quoted $5 grande. But only front bonnet, fenders, lights......

Our brother up north facelifted his 320i for MYR 12 grande, I'd think.

thanx a lot for the inputs guys!

Waste of time and money bru, coz by the time u facelifted will be considered old model liao. E90 models are just round the corner, used the money to buy us satay, mee pok, drinks and 100+.


:errr:

If timing is right, export it just after the 3rd yr, get a 1yr old or so FL one & mod it up! Don't bother for now. Back to your ques, my neighbour who decided to keep his 4yrs+ 318 just got his car back after sending in to facelift it for 2 wks+. Spent just slight over 5k for the full works, swee swee.

Bru, I meant market price la. Go check your paper value, outstanding loan, body value etc, get a quote & do a comparison b4 deciding. I think your ride can fetch 90+k only, likely to be a case of scrapping it. With the current market, prices are still dipping, even with the upcoming CNY, don't think it'll pick up much. e60/90 your dream..me - toyota wish, new car 79k, swee swee.

 

[calvin]

e60/90 your dream..me - toyota wish, new car 79k, swee swee.

maybe i gog to fully make over my E46 into E60 or E90... then can continue to drive for another 5 yrs. swee swee... else my "wish" will not comes true. :laughlik:

I meant if timing is right. He didn't want to rush the job, so his friend took his time to do it. Me too, when I 1st mod my car, plus spraying, it took almost 11/2 wks to complete, but i got a replacement car from workshop to shuttle around. For your case, consider b4 commiting coz you intend to export it at the end of the day.

At least it refreshes the image of your car, so machiam u feel like driving a new car with "only" $5-7k...
