ill get some good under body shots @ school in about a week.

also, i think Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked my fender, because i have NO CLUE how some one could have gotten it like that.

car only works when its cold. and the windshield has a hair line crack on it. some one taped a dime to it so it wouldnt leak water.

ITS NOT A SALVAGE CAR. USED.

You got a killer deal, that body looks good for what you paid. I think I sense a silvia front end in the future??? The body work is cake, get rid of the single cam and you're in business. Seriously awesome start, welcome to Nico!

I agree with that. Personally I think sil-80's are dumb. Silvia conversions belong on coupes... Some sil80's look relly nice, but lets keep it as it was meant to be.

Sorry for the hating, sil80 owners.

actually... let me clarify before someone gets pissed. lol.

I love the Silvia front end. on coupes.I also love hatches, in their own right. I just think pop-ups look better on hatches than sil fronts.and sil fronts look better on coupes than pop-ups.s15 fronts belong on s15s (but if you HAVE to, hatch or s14... theres an s14.5 in the town next to mine and its reaaalllly nice.)Skyline fronts... come ON!

Kouki s14s, either stay on the s14 or on s13 coupes.... hatches basically should have either popups or s15s (done tastefully) and thats the two options in my opinion.

But thats just me.

i agree w/ everything you said. there are of course a few exceptions i have seen. but this sums up how i feel about front end conversions

fer sure. There's always exception(s) to the rules, ya know. But in reality, NO front end conversions look good when done half-assed or tastelessly. Its just that certain ones need to be damn near perfect for me to dig it... and others, can be sloppier and still look good, because they are more "meant to be."
