Explorer body kit

[Ryan_Cunningham]

hi, Im new to the forum, however Im going to be getting an early (91-94) model explorer within the next month or two thanks to my dad backing into my car a couple weeks ago. anyways, I was wondering about Rick Horwitz's orange explorer that was made to look like a 95+ explorer with the new front section. one, how much does the modification cost, and two can you put a normal bumper onto the front section b/c I wont be using it for heavy offroading or anything, I would just rather it looked like the newer explorers. thanks

i think the kit costs $600, and it includes everything but the headlights and turn signals.

try a search for perrys fab kit

I checked the website, I even emailed them a few days ago, but they didnt respond. but if its only 600, thats really good, why dont more ppl do the mod?

people can think of better ways to spend $600 bucks...like tires or winch bumper or nitrous kit or rims.....

Plus the kit is fiberglass which isnt as strong as the standard steel.

personally, i would rather have fiberglass. it's lighter. lots of cars are made with fiberglass. and it will never rust.

Personally, I won't do it because the 91-94 looks much better!

painting is expensive

some people like the look of the rugged boxy 91-94 instead of the rounded, city SUV 95+ look. Just depends on your taste.
