99 Conversion Information Thread Cheap Prices

[fastfalcon94]

I’ve seen a lot of post in the Parts Wanted forum for 99 parts. I’ve also seen a lot of post regarding misc brackets and such. I had a hard time figuring everything out when I did my conversion so I thought I would help everyone out. Here is a complete breakdown of what you will need to do the 99 conversion. Everything you need can be bought at from AutoPartsPeople. Follow this link:

I’ve searched high and low when doing my conversion and they have the cheapest parts by far. Rockville wouldn’t even match their prices; they said they couldn’t even get them that cheap.

99 Bumper --- $382.77
Left Headlight --- $445.48
Right Headlight --- $445.48
Left Turn Signal --- $53.57
Right Turn Signal --- $53.57
Left Bumper Insert --- $25.24
Right Bumper Insert --- $25.24
99 Sail Panels --- $93.25 each - They come painted your choice of 4 stock colors
99 vr-4 wing --- $870.87
99 Hoop wing --- $292.24
99 Rear center Panel --- $82.85

*Note all the headlights, turn signals, and Bumper inserts come with the bolts and clips needed to install them

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now if you want the splash shields underneath, there are 3 plastic pieces.

Left --- $20.92
Center --- $46.48
Right --- $20.92

*Note: If you buy the splash shield, scroll down a little. You will want to order 12 Hole Cover Nuts, and 12 Hole Cover Bolts to hold the splash shield on.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now here are all the brackets you’ll need to mount the 99 bumper. The 2nd and 1st gen brackets won’t fit. The only bracket you can reuse is the top one on the bumper in front of the radiator and hood latch. But if you don’t have it, no problem, APP has them. Just match the number w/ the picture.




#20 Lower Bracket Lower Bracket Right --- $4.93
Lower Bracket Lower Bracket Left --- $4.93

#18 Upper Upper Right --- $13.70
Upper Upper Left --- $13.70

#19 Lower Lower Right --- $8.64
Lower Lower Left --- $8.64

#12 Protector Lower --- $54.23

#7 Brace Brace Right --- $11.56
Brace Brace Left --- $11.56

#9 Protector Front --- $9.12 ** You can take this off your old bumper

#10 Protector Center --- $29.84 ** You can take this off your old bumper

#11 Protector Rear --- $3.36 ** You can take this off your old bumper

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now what if you ordered your bumper from elsewhere or bought it used? What and how many will I need to order? Well here you go:

#4 Bumper Cover Pad --- $0.59 each, you need 2 one for each side

#3 Retainer Clip Lower --- $0.98 each, you need 2. It snaps part #7 to the top of part #20

#14 Hole Cover Nut --- $0.44 each, you need 8 to do the bumper inserts. This is also the same clip used underneath the bumper that will slide onto the inside lip of your bumper. Then your splash shield will bolt up into these clips. I believe you need 12 for this, so total of 20.

#15 Hole Cover Bolt --- $0.76 each, You will need one for every part #14 your order.

#2 Retainer Clip Upper --- $1.24 each, These snap into part #20. you need 4. If you get these you better order 4 more of part #5. The purpose of these clips is to for the inner fender lining to bolt into. On earlier gens, there are 3 holes for the fender linings. However the 99 only has 2. I think it may have slightly different fender linings with holes in each.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now here are some optional parts, but you shouldn’t need them if you saved your bolts from removing your old bumper.

#5 Bumper Cover Screw --- $0.76 each, You will need 4, they hold your bumper to your fender and screw through part #7.

#8 Bumper Cover Bolt --- $0.91 each, You need 4. They bolt from inside the fender and have the job of pulling the fender and bumper together

#6 Bumper Cover Gromment --- $0.74 each, You need 4. They snap into underneath your fender. Bumper Cover Screws #5 screws up into it.


I think that about sums it up. Please don’t bash me if I screwed up a quantity or anything. Everything ships from the state of Washington. There is a dealer there called Mountain Mitsubishi. They use AutoPartsPeople as there online store front. There shipping is also very fair. I had everything minus the 99 bumper and v-4 wing shipped to Vermont for around $100. Everything was packaged good and arrived safely. I managed to find a used 99 bumper, and I just ordered my wing from www.cianciusa.com I can’t wait until it comes. Sorry I don’t have specific part #’s. I think they might be listed on my invoice though. I’ll check later. - Charlie

This is great cuz I was in the process of shopping around. I will prolly get the bumper and all the mounting hardware from them, and the lights from ips cuz they don't charge shipping.
