has anyone attempted or done the S15 tails on a S14?

i kno the S14 is a lil rounder in the back then the S15 but a lil molding and some cash i think it could work...hahaha

also is it easy to find S15 body parts OEM take offs? like trunk lid or even the rear bumper?

sorry to sound like such a noob i m learning i m learning!!

you would probably have to graft on s15 rear fenders and doors to make it look right. the body lines are way different. it probably can be done but i like the s14 lights better anyways. Plus i cant afford(money and time) doing it. good luck though

[/quote] 1) yes2) it could, but its so expensive its not worth it3) not in the US4) we're all noobs at some point, but trust me on this, its not worth the cost of doing an s15 conversion on the rear of your car unless you're spending somebody else's money. And if you are, that money could be spent 1000x better on engine parts or suspension work.

good luck
