I've been reading through this thread and searching a bit, and it seems to me that if you got the bracket(s) you could put this together for much cheaper than advertised. just checking ebay, the most expensive items are the headlights and hood, hood-500 ish, lights less than 1000, fenders 3-400 ish, then paint/ install, cheaper if you diy. I would only do something like this after engine work though.
