I know there are some folks that have done the conversion from the 95-96 headlights to either the JDM S15 front end or 97-98 style.  I'd like to do one of them... probably depending on funds.

What's necessary for both and about how much should I expect to spend.  Any hidden advantages with going for one over the other?  ie more aftermarket lighten hoods?

Do your reasearch on the hood thing, 'cuz I don't know.
I do know that it is expensive to get the newer headlights.  I have heard $3000-$3500 with paint.
There is so much you need to change.

You will need the Hood of a s14 or 15 along with Fenders and a front bumper and the headlights. So expect to fork out $3000 for all this then have it installed and painted. Not worth it IMHO.

Hmm, $3k seems about right for the S15 swap... I was planning on getting a hood and front bumper anyways.  I guess just the lights and the fenders and paint isn't too bad on top of the body kit & hood.  Thanks folks!

I think most places do not include the s15 bumper as part of the price.  All you get is the hood, lights, and fenders.

BUt don't quote me on that
