i've just recently got a 93 Nissan D21. it was a cheap buy and is my first vehicle. when i got it, it had a messed up front end. Dented front bumper and valance. its also chrome and ive come across that toyota pickup bumpers look great on d21's. But another problem is the driver side fender. my truck is also 2WD but i was searching around and have found that the 4WD fenders are cheaper, and i was wondering how much different do they look and if you have to do any modifications to put it on a 2WD D21? if anyone can help i would be very thankful.

Welcome to NICO! 4wd fenders are a direct bolt on swap for the 2wd trucks. The only thing you will also want to swap over are the inner splash shields, the 2wd shields are not side enough to cover the gap. I have pics of the 4wd fender swap on my truck all over this site. Post up some pics when you get a chance.

Thank you for the help! Much needed! And i will try to post some pictures up tomorrow. I've only currently got a picture of the whole truck. I've been meaning to take more photos of it. But thank you again!
