I have a list of all parts I need for the conversion. I know several of these are small parts that I could just pick up off of eBay or Amazon, but I need every part on the list. Please let me know what you have. All parts need to be in good condition. Please respond to this thread or PM me.

I live in ZIP code 40031.

Quad mufflers, either Corsa Sport w/black tips (preferred) or stock GT500 mufflers

Thanks for your time.

Edit:

Bought all items except for mufflers

Aside from the obvious, potential fitment issues, whats the risk of getting a used bumper cover or, more specifically, an ebay one? there is one company on eBay that does prepainted bumper covers

I have stock ‘13-14 mufflers and Stainless Works resonator quad tips (like a muffler delete with small resonators).
Its a great swap, looks better ‘13-14 rear IMO

Thanks all but the only muffler I’m really interested in are either the corsa sport or stock GT500, unless it’s a deal I just can’t pass up

Sure, I have 2 sets of 2014 stock GT500 mufflers, like new low miles $350 shippedas they’re expensive to ship. Good luck it’s a Worthwhile conversion.

Ah, I missed that you have the stock mufflers in your previous post. I would like to try my luck at some corsa sports first, but I'll definitely keep you in mind for the GT500 stock mufflers.

I thought this might be useful for you. Americanmuscle just came out with the new vector lights for the 2011 and 2012. They list them for $399 and with our discount they should be somewhere around $375 for the set. I am pretty sure they will come out with those for the 2013 and 2014. If they do and you don't like them then most likely a lot of people will sell their oem 2013 lights for cheeper then you can get them now. I found a pic online that has the 2013 bumper with the 2011 lights on and it actually doesn't look to bad. You could use you light for now until rexion makes the new light or you find a cheep used set of OEM ones. I would check car-parts.com for a used bumper that's a website for all the junkyards around the country. I found a nice used bumper for $100 on craigslist near me. I have a guy paint it for $250, all other shops wanted $450 to $550 for the paintjob. If you find a good used one with your body color that would be best.

Thanks for the information, I already bought the 2013 taillights though, only paid $600 for the set.

Not sure why but for some reason I didn’t even think of craigslist for the bumper though. So thanks for the heads up on that!

Not sure if this will be helpful but a guy here in DFW has new front and rear bumper covers for sale. Perhaps you can work out a deal...

I now have everything I need for the swap, thanks to all who contributed.

For anyone interested, I sourced most of the parts from eBay and Amazon, as far as the grommets and plastic rivets, etc. all the big stuff (bumper, valance, mufflers, tail lights) were from the dealer (bumper) Amazon (valance, go with OEM, the IKON Motorsport piece was very flimsy and wouldn’t even mount because it was too small. Almost like the whole thing shrunk) and the mufflers and tail lights came from a members in here. In all (including painting the bumper) I spent just under $2k, which I feel is not too bad considering how expensive the bumper w/paint and tail lights are.
