I know there's different types of body trims... and i've heard zenki and chouki for s13, but what other types could an '89 s13 be? Or how can i check with the car, what it is? Take into consideration i am the 3rd owner of the car, and the guy i bought it from put a '91 front end. I know the fenders and hood do not fit properly cuz it does not line up well. The fenders were rolled. But i know for sure the hood is not for an '89 cuz the hinges are uneven. it is not bent or anything. I want to restore this car properly and need to go slowly. Thanks to everyone in advance for any and all help!!!

89 only had SE for the Hatchback and XE for the coupe. Fenders need the extensions so that the 91-94 bumper flows. The hood is the same. Check the hinges for proper hood alignment.

ok so what i've learned by searching the net after a long time...
Zenki = 89-90
Chuki = 91-94
Kouki = 95-98
Right??? So that means that there are no kouki in s13. Can someone verify this for me please? So that means i must replace stock parts with zenki style! cool

u can get the fender extensions from a chuki so that your bumper will be flush with the fenders. also like stated, the hood is the same so its probably not aligned properly
