Hmm....Greddy lip or S15 frontend?

[UncleBen]

I am going to be needing a new front end for my car, which is totalled, so eventually I will be gettin everything fixed. You think I should put the factory '95 frontend back on it with a Greddy lip, or go strawberry face? I am just looking for opinions.

[AJ-SPEC]

if you have the money, the strawberry face is a no brainer. But the greddy front lip looks good too, especially if it's all repainted n' stuff.

[yeswepromise]

you should make it the kouki face.

strawberrys are sweet, if youve got the cheese. I got the s15 conversion with drift bumper and its gonna end up costin about 5k for everything, including changing the color of the car.

[yeswepromise]

at least 95silviase has some real modifications.

can't wait to see it

yeswepromise - why does it matter?

edit:Ben- go with the strawberry face, but keep it sorta "stock" looking, like S15 stock. or just on a euro zenki face and keep your losses down.

obviously it doesnt really matter to some people.i happen to like spending my money on making my car perform better. i guess the reason i bought a 240sx was so that i could drive it and use it for its purpose.i would NEVER spend $5000 to buy a new front end on an otherwise stock car. i really hope he doesnt get in an accident right after the car gets finished with the body work and paint. although if it did happen maybe you would understand why i feel this way. well i guess that is what i think. i dont really want this to turn into a flame war.

i kinda think it sucks that he is paying $5K for that conversion and not even getting a nice bumper.

ah i just looked at his little web page thing and i see a picture of autocross. okay that is good. at least the car isnt going completly to waste.

I would replace it with the stock and put the greddy lip on it. I agree with the accident philosophy. I would wait for estimates and such on the car before I got my mind set on anything. Money will be the real issue.

I see your point. I would rather add a few K in stereo, suspension, and maintenence and invest the rest for 5 plus years till after college.

Bodykits, etc. just increase your chances of getting pulled over, or vandalized.

But i disagree on the fact that you should have 'real' mods before doing exterior stuff. You should have performance mods or some nice body kit. both = waste of money because youll **** up your kit real quick with any racing, accidents, and youll not have enough money and time to keep both looking/working good.

[yeswepromise]

so are you saying you should only have performance mods or you should only have visual mods? one or the other. not both.

I take that back, its depends on the circumstances...for me, yes, for sponsored by TEIN tuner, No

[UncleBen]

Thanks for all your opinions. But as of right now, the car is totalled and I am going to hopefully be getting money for it, I am going to try and strip it COMPLETELY down, and then try to find another s14. We will see what happens. News changes every few hours it seems.

[Structure240sx]

what happen?
