Ok, I wrecked my 95 240SX I was wondering if anyone knew how hard it would be and how expensive it would be to change the front end to look like a 97-98 or possibly a S15 but probaly not that because I dont have a whole lot of money to spend on it. I dont have collison on my poor baby so It's all gonna be out of pocket. Thanks, Kevin

your will need new

Bumper <---requires a tiny bit of fitment effortfendershoodheadlightsand i hope im not forgetting anything...

They come as cheap as you can find em. Sometimes you can get em for cheap, sometimes thats not the case. If I smashed mine up I would definitly be looking at the kouki front end. Good luck!

you shouldnt have any problems with the conversion. worst case scenario is slight manipulation of the core and frame ( I had to do a little bending/cutting for my s15 conversion)
