So. i am converting my zenki to a kouki front end. and have a few questions
i will be using oem metal fenders and a oem usdm front bumper. I will be boosting it in the future more then likely some type of swap. rb or sr. my main question is bash bar or oem bumper bracket and support. and if i do use a bash bar how will i mount my headlights, corner lights and my bumper?
this forum is saying all the oem stuff i need and it gets pricy very quickly. when a bash bar is about 200 shipped from almost any brand.
so what is every ones thoughts?

Head lights mount to the core support, not the bumper. Only your bumper mounts to the reenforcement beam, well turn signals too. Worry about modifying your crash bar later. It's better to have it, than not.
