Your title is very misleading...

On a different note, what is it with so many damaged front ends?

Is everyone driving without front bumper supports?

Sorry about your accident

Go to the junkyard and find the oldest sweetest looking front clip off any car in the lot and use that. and when i say any car i mean like an old bandit or camaro or something. I have seen a bandit frontclip on a 240 once it was feaking sweet! and it would be cheaper than buying a new 240 front clip

A camaro front clip would fit?

i love the classic look but honestly if i were to move on2 another front, i'd go the road less travel'd...13.4, just get convertor fenders and oem lights, bumper, hood...s13 is nice but then you gotta get the right headlights...15 is good2, gr8 but that's me...13.4 all the way!

do a conversion, you're gonna spend money on parts anyway, might as well get a look that you want
