    *** k my bad guys

    a vn executive has black bumpers front and rear and has a black strip threw the middle

    the calais has silver front and rear bumpers and a silver strip threw the middle.

    i was wondering if anyone would know approx how much the 2 calais bumpers would cost and the strips threw the middle?

    OMG lol...i understand you...it would depend on who has the parts available as to cost...as TVR said a damaged set might be $50 and a pristine set could be $1000...keep an eye on eBay and do a ring around of the wreckers...theres also the option of vinyl or plastic paint in silver or even colour code your old ones...does it have to look like a calais?...anything is good as long as its tasteful...

    probably would be easier to sell your executive and use your three grand to buy a calais and odify that some more..less mucking around anyway

    buying a calais will be cheaper than converting an exec to a calais not to mention easier as well.

    and by first time poster do you mean "i posted some stupid shit and got banned"? vnwpn1. i see you're not the smartest tool in the shed...

    do yourself a favour and don't spam. this is a forum, not msn. you don't need to post question marks after 9 minutes of no response. it doesn't do anything.
