Front end swap

[SkinnyKibbles]

Before:



After:













The driver side is still a little out of line due the the front end collision but it still looks decent. Having all the mechanical and electrical problems solved (knock on wood) all I have left is to paint it and get some decent rims.

glad she is getting straight. what color paint ?

[SkinnyKibbles]

Its up for debate at the moment. I was thinking black, one friend says white the others say two tone (black bottom red top). I heard someone say neon pink.

[slow40]

neon pink?! only if you get an original bret "the hitman" hart jumpsuit and let your hair grow out, or swap in a 700+ hp motor. Otherwise I would have to call you gay.

I would have a pink car. But i dont have to prove anything... and P.s. Pink is one of my favorite colors.

I wouldnt do two tone red and black.... Go with something solid.

Awe i like piggies better lol. Looks good though, and i would pikk pink over red and black that just sounds terrible to me. lol

[SkinnyKibbles]

well the two tone color scheme came from my buddy craig. He as a pulsar that is two tone red and black and it looks good. I really think it would clash with the 240's body lines

Well to me two tones look "off" on a chuki front bumper. I think a solid maroon would be great. Or black. Darker colors make the car look like new.

i just picked up everything for my piggy to chuki conversion also, and had the same problem cant pick a color, lol

but I was throwing some ideas around with the guys and pink was also one of the main ideas( i think theres a pink advan exhaust pic on youtube.) could be wrong with the advan though....anyway i also like the black 97-98 kouki pic with the gold or bronze brushed hood (colorblind sorry) the one with the hot chick floating around the site.

but yeah lots of red/black 240sx's only thing that stops me there.

Good luck with the build!

so what parts do I need to get to do a conversion, I see that you changed the hood. Was it because of the accident?

Thanks

You don't need any parts, just a 10mm setup. when doing the swap don't forget the trim pieces on the front bumper. the conversion was plug n' play.

And yes, i replaced the hood as well. it had a few small dents and was covered in sap.
