Hey,I'm letting you know now, a MAJORITY (not all) of body kits for 240's are pretty expensive. For a High Quality, Good Fitting kit, your looking probably to spend around $600-$800, easily. Oh, that's not including paint and install. I spent way over that for my kit on my S14. If you want some suggestions (these are the MORE expensive kits, but look the best): C-west, Bomex, GP Sports, Veilside, and the list goes on. Do you have the hatchback or the coupe? If you have the hatch, I suggest you get the C-west kit. Here is the link (it's in Japanese though)http://www.c-west.co.jpIf you have the coupe, I suggest you get the Bomex. Here is the link as well:http://www.bomexusa.comPrices aren't that bad for these kits, but expect to pay close to $1000 including a spoiler. Good luck!!! :D

Hmmm... I think I see a trend... new people keep coming and asking about paint, body kits, rims, etc... it sounds like a rice (there needs to be a new term for that) invasion.

what's wrong with wanting to look good? sure beats cardboard body kits and spray paint (now THAT is rice). i see a trend of performance-oriented people thinking that paint, body kits, rims, etc are rice and that only by keeping stock are they avoiding being rice (not meaning you specifically, just what you said made me think of that). i remember some post a while back by some one who said he wanted to get exaust but didn't want to be rice. come on, rice doesn't mean modifying your looks, it means doing it with bad taste and other impractical things.

Nothing wrong with a body kit.

sweendog240, Welcome to the board. I personally like the Silvia conversions. Daunt can hook you up with Silvia body parts (conversion).

If you are just wanting a regular kit, I like the GP sport, kit.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions about kits and conversions.Remember, we're a family here.Some of us may not get along with others, but atleast respect eachothers ideas.
