I don't mean to be a d!ck, and maybe I should just reserve my opinion. But it really looks like it was kind of thrown together in a ricey-bandwagony explosion. Definatly something I saw in Need For Speed Underground or something.

I guess my biggest dislikes are the seat cover interior, the stupid front fender vents, actually the total abundance of vents and air holes and..weird shogun looking pockets. The dual nostril hood scoop, hood pins? sidemarker, taillights.

I do like the rims and conversion though :P. Keep doing what you're doing man, by the number of pictures you posted you obviously enjoy it very much. All the power too ya.

Nice, white 240sx's rule!!! The car really flows until you get to the taillights....something about the reverse lights...maybe if you tint the center panel??

Or go back to OEM tails... Other than that I like the overall look. Clean ride.

Like everyone says tail has to go. Reverse lights look like WRX fog lights. Man... those are as big as personal pan pizza. If you REALLY want to keep clear tails, do this. swap the center panel like this blue S14.

If you take care of these, you car would look really nice.

1. Hood pins2. Side markers3. Tail lights4. Lower it

I kinda like the eye lids and body kits are okay. Looks like your bodyshop guy did a hell of a good job. Things line up almost perfect and paint job looks very well done. Congrats on your car.

I think everything looks awesome except for the eyelids, hoodpins and tail lights. The reverse lights are what turns me off on the tail lights.

Good job putting her together!

hey man i think it looks really good, and dont listen to all these other huys about changing it the way "they" think it would look good, obviously that is how YOU like it so leave it at that, everybody gets the impression that every 240sx should be more jdm jdm jdm but if thats how YOU like it then leave alone, i give you on the work and on how fast you did all of this 10 months wow from salvage, but i never saw what it looked like from before.

Ahhh I'm blinded by the taillights... seriously good job but it looks like you need a drop of about 2inches. Show pics from when you first got her. Looks damn good homie! Way to bring one back from the dead.

I know this may be getting repetitive, but PLEASE take the tail lights off and burn them. and then pee on the ashes.

i also think you could rock the stock rear bumper w/o the ghey valences for a cleaner look. nice car though, I can tell you worked pretty hard on it.

I think it came out rather decent. The tails are meh...

Is that the c-west front bumper and origin lab fenders? They match up quite nicely. What other fenders are there for an s15 conversion?

Can list the mods done so far, ie. brands etc?Can someone post pics of other s15 conversions that look "less rice?" It's hard finding stock looking s15 conversion parts.

dont think anyone was telling him it didnt come out well, they are just saying some parts are rice.

And im 99% sure thats a c west bumper.

But i got love for other s14.5 drivers.

OEM bumpers are not hard to find, the fenders on the other hand are. Decent looking hood that's not oem aka carbon fiber also is quite rare.

Anyone know if they have that style fender for an s14?
