I would like some oppinion on a choice i am makeing. I got into a accdient a couple days ago and i kinda want to do the s15 front end conversion, I figured sence i am spending the money to get it fixed i would do somthing like that. I am also repainting the whole car. it is currently black, i was think of somthing like the 350z blue, write some comments and sugestions.

keep the headlights stock, they suit the car sooo much better than any of the others, at least i think.

FYI "350z blue" has a paint color code TV2. I've seen it on a couple 240's and its hot! I really want to do the 350z copper color....NICE!

The color is good, but IMHO the s15 headlights only look good on the s15.

IMO i would repair your front end or get a kouki front end because it should be cheaper than a s15 conversion. You repair your front end and get those clear headlight replacement covers for your car, now that'll look hot!and get a nice kit too.

Where do i get those clear covers? The only reason i never liked my lights is that they are like foggy. How hard would it be to do the kouki conversion? and how much do you think the light covers and the kouki conversoin would cost me???:)

THere was a thread about those head light covers a while back i tihnk. There should be a link the FAQ section about how the install is and how much the kouki conversion cost. I'll try to find a pic of the covers.

Don't do a kouki front end....done too often. There is a guy selling the clear headlight covers on FA. Type in Zenki for a search in the for sale section. $220 for the headlight covers and $120 for the corner markers. They are SEX!

really?....is that on a Zenki S14 or a Honda Civic?


The Kouki conversion can cost $2500+ and since your getting a paint job I suggest you get an aftermarket bumper....unless you like the stock bumper with a lip. Also do something about the sides and rear.



Not my car....

I got my whole S15 conversion for just about $3000 - talk to chris from www.speedalliance.com - he's a GREAT guy to work with

I got all my stuff except my headlights from him- (fenders, Carbon fiber hood, Vertex front bumper, Nismo Copy sides and rear)

Then i got my headlights off of some guy in Cali.
Ill post pics soon when my car gets out of the bodyshop
