The whole Fiberwerx kit is $1300. The glassworks fenders are $475. So subtract the fenders from the Fiberwerx kit, and I should be back around $1300. Plus headlights which are around $250. So for the whole front end after taxes, around $1600.

just remeber that all the body work will be fiberglass and not metal. Fiber glass is much thiner and bends. It may have just been my huge 1 piece clip on but my hood and bedsides would rattle and shake A LOT! I had to have some supports built for the bed sides and the hood to keep them from shaking.

The rear will come later, because I will have to do a TON of fabrication to the bed and frame to shorten it. But as far as the parts go, I need fiberglass bedsides ($500) tail lights ($125) and a stock tailgate ($???). In addition I will fabricate my own bumper. So total for the rear is around $1000. Or I could just buy a full raptor bed (if I can even find one) and just cut a foot out of the frame and call it a day.

It should be 3.5" wider per side. It will look a little dorky at first, but not too bad because the tires don't stick way out past the fenders.

I paid over $150 originally for them, so I would like to get close to $100 out of them. That will include the wiring and switch.
