Hmmmm, a blue would look good. Like a nice medium blue. Not too dark, not too light. Like intercooler piping coupler blue lol. Red would look ok too but I'd much rather see it in blue.

Moar pics please, that looks like a very clean kouki swap.

This thread needs a better title. It'd get alot more attention if it was something like "my s13.4"

Definitely looks good, but make sure you match the Aero pretty well, front looks a lot more aggressive than the rest of the car. I say a dark color, probably black would look best. I also think more aggressive wheels would make it hawwwt

I think your car looks great. I would say that you should paint it pearl white with a high gloss black roof.

It will look good when it gets painted. I like the original paint color or paint it black. Nice rims as well!

If I may offer to you a personal experience of mine...

The seibon carbon fiber hood that I had on my car recently flew up and did some legitimate damage. My hood was busted beyond repair, hood hinges were busted, and I had some damage to my roof.

I recommend getting hood pins.

IMO, that looks like to wide of a front end. . .I always took these conversion and thought they looked better at least on a coupe as well.

But if you are to paint it - and keep the 962's.

Go red. Bronze and red or gold and red ALWAYS looks clean.

And even maybe keep the top black. Two tone sounds good.

But please dont take my opinion as trying to put your car down in any way - the front end work looks really good man. I guess I'm just not a big fan of it on the s13

clean front end swap, looks good. the gaps are nice and tight, even the headlights look like they were mounted right. i want to do this swap on my coupe, but w/a jdm front bumper and there are some less agressive looking fenders that look almost stock. clean none the less. i say paint it whatever color you like, i like going to the dealerships and autobody shops to see what colors might look good on an s13. if i had to choose a color, i would say a dark grey (like is300 anthracite) with a subtle green pearl sprayed over so that you only see it when the light hits the car just right.

the s14 front make your car look like it has a widebody kit, but it still looks nice though
