Ok i did a quick search first to see if i caould find out what i need but nothing turned up, so what i'm wondering is if the fenders from a later model s13(91-93) will match up to an earlier 89 model. the reason i wondering this is cause i know they each have different front bumpers and i wasn't sure if the body lines from the different model yrs would match up front. thanks for any info.

They should all line up. All aftrmarket front bumpers and such are sold as S13. They do not differentiate between 89-90 and the later years. I don't see how they would do that if the fenders were different.

Hey downhiller, if you are looking for s13 body panels, I have a set that I want to get rid of that are on my car right now. They need repainted, but they are in good shape. No dents or anything.

the 91-94 fenders have holes in the side where the extra bumper plastic pieces bolt on. sorry for being so vague not reall sure what to call them. but if your wanting to convert it then all of it will line up with the doors and newer fenders will be needed to fit a newer style bumper. or drill the holes and buy the plastic pieces.:cool:

hope this helps. i got this from Joe_M on zilvia.net.

"Actually, the 91-94's have that little trim peice that sits flush with the bumper. On the 89-90's, the fender and bumper are flush, i.e. no little trim piece. The only reason I bring this up is because the way the trim peice is mounted to the fender. On the 91-94's there is a hole that it snaps into. So if you put a 89-90 fender on a 91-94, there is no problem, you can just use the screws in the fender well to attach the trim peice. But if you put a 91-94 fender on the 89-90's, you will have that hole to contend with. If you are good with bondo, it's not a problem."

Hey KS_Honda_Killer, you still have those panels?

I'm in the process of major body work on my 89 240sx...

thanks,

I have the 91-94 plastic trim pieces, if anyone wants them, 20 bucks for both, plus shipping :) They are in good condition, one is a little scratched on the bottom (being so close to the road), and one is missing the clip on palstic thingies, but u can buy them at any pep boys for 50 cents, you'll have to repaint them anyway (both are dark green), so it probably doesn't matter. Sorry, I know this is not buy/sell/trade, just wondering if anyone wants those.

Wow, i just bought a new aftermarket driver side fender for my 93 and of course it didn't come with the square plastic piece. Anyone have an idea what this part is called and the part number to go with it. I have been to a dozen scrap yards and a dealership with everyone having no idea what i'm requesting. Thanks
