Hi everyone, I'm new on here and I've owned my 1996 Nissan 240 SX for a whoel 2 months now. The car has a lot of minor repairs that need to be made and I was wondering if anyone knew the answers to a few of my questions. 1) I like the Zenki courners but I like the Kouki projectors head lights. if you modify the mounting bracket on a 96 will Kouki headlights fit Zenki corners. 2) I need a new hood as well and if the MCS14 lights will go on mine Ok will a Kouki hood still bolt up right with the Zenki fenders? 3) I want to put an aftermarket R33 style front fascia on my car, if I can do headlight modifications how much trouble would it be to put on on. Should I get a Zenki front kit or a Kouki one?

THanks to anyone who can answer these questions I really appreciate it

if you're going to swtich to a kouki projector lights, you'll have to get the fenders, hood, and bumper. Being the kouki headlights are squarish as to zenkis being more rounded.

wrong, he only needs the bumper and hood... he likes the zenki cornerlights, so he wont need to replace the fenders because the fenders are already fitting to his cornerlights.

Correct you only need the bumper and hood, hell you could even use the zenki hood if you wish, but it'll look like crap with the huge gap on it.

AWESOME! yeah I don't like the squared off corner lights of the Kouki, doens;t fil the smooth curves of the rest of the car, and I LOVE projector lights, My Zenki is a salvage rebuild. so the whole front end is slighty outta spec, so that means PROJECT CAR! does anyone know what front bumber kit would I need to use? the Zenki cause it goes under the croudner corners or the Kouki cause of the head lights? Thanks you guys, ya'll are AWESOME!
