Exclamation 99 JSPEC Taillight Conversion

I am taking orders for '99 JSPEC Taillight Conversion. I will post pictures as soon as I can borrow a digital camera since my wife is on vacation right now. I am doing the conversion for $65 which includes shipping back to you. I need a total of 5 people for my initial before I will do the conversions. Please PM me and I will post a list of people interested, soon as I hit the 5 I will have everyone make their payment and ship their lights out. Turn around time is 1 week and I am paypal verified so your money is protected.

Thanks!

sorry dude, could always pay for expedited shipping, I can get them done in 1 day and ship them back 2 day or overnight if you cover the expedited shipping costs...

To: renmaman81, It only takes 2-3 hrs. depending on how many coating of paint you'd want to spray on the tail lights. It is very simple and easy to do. You'd need to get a heat gun, contact sheet, compass and xacto knife from home depo.

Try doing it yourself if you do not have the time. It is very straight fwd.

I am not stealing anyones idea. rzograbian has stated numerous times that he is doing his last set of lights and then people keep contacting him and he does more.

To all that look at this post: here is the how to if you'd like to attempt this yourself:

http://www.jsott.com/rx-7/lights/index.html

I personally spent $30 for the heat gun, $20 for the circle cutter (I could not find an xacto knife compass combo at 7 local stores), had to go with some craft shop circle cutter, $3.00 for one can of lacquer, $6.00 for a 25 foot roll of clear contact paper, $1.00 for masking tape. If you don't already have this stuff then you are looking at $60 + or - alittle depending on your area, plus the time to convert your lights. If you don't have these items and/or time, then this is the reason why I am offering to do the conversions.

Thanks!

I've heard numerous times over the years of people destroying their stock tails by trying this out.....it can be a bit of a steep learning curve (esp when you are putting car parts in the oven ). If the pics show quality work, might not be a bad idea guys......

Goodfella: love that bumper man, everytime I see it I want to buy one lol How much of a difference do you feel in the BNR parallel's? I am running parallel stock twins but they have 86k on them, might be time to upgrade soon.
