98_EXPEDITION Jul 25, 2002 11:06 AM

It's here!!!
 
I finally completed my 99+ conversion. Well I actually finished a few weeks ago, but I just took pictures. Here are a few shots of the finished product. It actually wasn't that difficult, took only 8 hours of actually sweat...

Should I now be known as "The Guy Formerly Known as 98 Expedition"???

Let me know what you guys think...

Nicely done. Very clean look. Makes a drastic difference. If mine ever gets wrecked, I plan to do the same thing.

looks good 98_EXPEDITION, what was the bill for all the parts? any part numbers? im wanting to do the same with mines

GASGUZZLER007 Aug 1, 2002 03:50 PM

Awesome ride. Looks a lot better with the new grilles/bumper.

98_EXPEDITION Aug 2, 2002 12:14 AM

Thanks everyone, I am just so happy to get that "diving board" look off of my Expo... I just need a good wax job and maybe evne get rid of the chrome around the mirrors and on the doors then I'll be where I wanna be!!

Well as far as the price here is a list:

2001 Bumper 150.00
2001 Grille 100.00
2001 Bumper pad and new Brackets
from dealer 137.00
Storm Valance W both
Upper and Lower Billet grilles
from Stillen 475.00

Total 862.00

Labor /time 6-8 Hours total
So I did'nt go over $1,000.00 yet if I would not have done the labor myself.... It would have been way over that....

Not to mention getting a whole new ride would have made ZERO sense. This is a 98 and I don' even have 50,000 miles on it yet, and it roars like a panther...

If anyone in the Los Angeles area is interested in doing this please contact me via e-mail and I may be able to help....
Caramale001@hotmail.com

Also I can walk anyone through this process if they need it... I had ZERO experience in body work so it shows that I posses some type of talent (not 2 pat myself on the back :D )

I wish they filled in the entire hole. But for $25, why am I complaining???
