Total of Parts: ≈$6056

Do not take this list as gospel. It is, however, a great foundation as to what you’ll be getting into if
interested in this conversion.

All prices are estimates and do not include labor or paint. I do not know how to calculate the exact
cost of labor (or paint for that matter), for it will depend on the speed, skill, and efficiency of yourself
or your shop. But my estimate (considering I had other items tended to on the car) would be in the
$750-$1250 for both labor and paint. That puts the total in the $7k range.

Grand Total: ≈$7000 ±$250

If you have any questions about this conversion please feel free to ask. I'll do my best to answer
them.

Please note: I did not perform this work myself, rather it was done by German Technology, Inc
of Euless, TX.
