The E320 conversion consists of the headlight, hood and grill. I did it to my car and it came out sweet! Just do it right the first time. [

One of the things people criticize about the W124 is the huge gaps between sheetmetal. The 94/95 hood leaves more than a 1 inch gap between the back of the grill and the radiator support. It would look odd if you were going from a 94/95 hood to a pre 94 hood because the curve in the corner of the 94/95 light will show on the older hood. #4 · Apr 30, 2005 i am doing that conversion right now.put the 1995 headlamps in also you have to change the headlamp filler panels.do it right its a mercedes.my friend jeff has hoods cheap.i also shaved the hood no star. #5 · Apr 30, 2005 not hard. should cost no more than $1000. correct? hood: $200 brand new headlights no more than $300. grille: $100. then paint/install depends on your sources but just a hood shouldn't cost more than $400. #6 · Apr 30, 2005 Dont forget about blending/fading in the fenders when painting the hood. More like a $1500+ job to do it right and not hack it. Ive seen some paint jobs look pretty funny when the fenders were not faded into and the hood only was painted.[:0] Insert Quotes Post Reply
