Complete and utter fabrication, and you need to find a local body shop in order to figure out their cost for this.

Its not a cut clear cost. Anything done to the 3gp is custom.

The only things that are bolt up, are the H22 swap kits I had made and currently sell, and the Ksports that I had designed for our community and currently sell.

There are no actual bolt up rear aftermarket tail lights. All custom there.

um yeah, sean were you tired? to do the 134 conversion, you will need the appropriate fittings, a new drier, and a vacuum pump. after you have replaced the drier and added your fittings, you can hook up the vacuum pump and pull a vacuum on it. if it holds, you are now ready to add the new r134 refrigerant. not that expensive to take to a shop and get it converted either. you probably should do it that way anyway, because if there is still r12 in the system, you shouldn't release it to the atmosphere. a shop can properly evacuate the system so you can replace what ever orings may be leaking, and replace the drier. its under your cruise control if you have it. silver can with a sightglass on it.
