looks like sh*t

body pannel dont line up, rims are way to small..

if you keep the car, get a better fitting front bumper, and rims. Try to unmold the side skirts and get some nicer onces.. and for the love of god slam it with decent rims, sell those rims to a honda owner thats who their made for...

The fenders look good. I would get a different bumper and hood. Maybe an S14 Orgin kit with a S15 bumper and OEM S15 hood.

1 out of 4 wheels is an oddball what do people sometimes thing .

I would just leave it like it is, just get it painted, save your self some money, on getting new bumper and $hit.

Invest your money into suspension, brakes, wheels, engine or things of this nature.

bumper is sagging that is why it looks as low as it is. Beyond that ugly is just another form of LOW life, haha.

Get better fenders that actually have body lines that continue and fit.

Got some work ahead of you, but atleast you are in the right frame of mind to make it right.

Good luck

If you have the money, a body shop could really get that car looking nice. Write down all that you'd want them to do to it and get an estimate. It doesn't hurt and it can give you an idea of what your up against. I would shop around and not settle for the 1st estimate you get. Make sure the body shop has a good reputation as well otherwise your giving your money away for poor service. Just my $0.02.

BTW, I would keep it with the S15 front. You certainly don't see them everyday and the parts for an S15 conversion are expensive. This car looks as if it was a homemade do-it-yourself rig job, but it has potential!!! Don't can the S15 front. I think it would look good with some professional help. That's my opinion.

sell the conversion to some fanboy, fix the dent on your drivers qp, then get the oem kouki front end. or trade me the car as is (wait, 5spd?) for my s13 hatch (SR, s13 front end) and some cash, and ill save it for you.

thats pretty much what i have in mind.. . yes the s14b is 5spd, 159k ka24de as can see on the s14, oh the hood is old so carbon fiber looks faded or vis sux.
