Not a fan of the red lip but the conversion looks VERY clean. Wheel fitment is good too. Looks nice.

The s15 front end looks 39439493 times better on a s14 rather than a s13.

Your car looks great. Good luck with sale i guess

Is that an actual OEM s15 front bumper?

Not to "hate"... but I don't really like the fact of front end conversions on different generations. (ie s13.4, s13.5, s14.5)

Looks better as just a kouki, imo. Nice work, though.

I dont like the fenders at all, if I stay with the car I will get some fiberglass oem style ones. I never really liked the s14.5 fronts that much but if you see this car in person, I think the wheels make the front look cleaner....

Thats funny everyone says the car looks fast Lol and yes the car is very very slow compared to the 1jz lol.Now I have to pick on the faster factory cars... Maybe if I keep it i'll put a 2jz in it...

I love toyota and I work on 2j's and 1j'z a lot I do custom harness and setup standalone systems on these car and they are my favorite to work on.

I want to sell it so I can buy a 350z and make my own single turbo kit. I like how they look and I want something a little more updated.

Yes, its a oem s15 front bumper, I don't like bodykits that much.. thats why I don't like the fenders that much.

I agree with you that if it had factory fenders it would look better. But the fitment is top notch dude. Actually makes me re-consider this idea. But If I do a conversion Ill just buy me a Zenkie. Koukis are getting ridiculous.

Looks great!The paint especially looks like it was quality work; the reflections are all very clean from what I can tell.

Quick question about the front end though- how did you mount it? Did you cut up the stock radiator support or go with an S15 one, and does it still have the front bumper bar?

This is a kouki front so the radiator support already has the holes for the rear of the headlights, just needed to open them up more. No there isn't a support bar in the front. Just very well place zipties lol.

Tastefully done, but at the cost of a kouki front end.
