thats for an s15, the best you could do is get the front bumper to go along with a strawberry face convo, but your looking at 2200-3500 bones, depending on where u get it from

yeah I know it's a s15 kit, I'm really onlu talking about the front fascia but you get the idea. "Strawberry" face conversion? I'm planing on doing a s13-s15 front end conversion eventually and am just checking out my options.

The "strawberry face" is basically an S15 front end conversion fo a S14 or S13 and it is a brand name chosen by the company that first marketed a kit of this type. That picture is an S15 with a kit on it. It is either a Bomex or a Do-Luck kit.

The picture your looking at kinda looks a lot like the east bear

Do you realize what a difficult question "what body kit is that"? is these days? There must be a million companies making "kits" It is a futile effort, I am tapping out for my own sanity. I know I know but baby steps y'now, a couple of marbles a day and I can finally go to the mall without my Hannibal Lector mask!

swift drift a Sil1580 is a rps13 (180sx) with the strawberry face conversion - i dont think there is a name for that but if there was i would guess one-via15 because a one-via is equivalent to the US 240sx coupe with a silvia rear and a one eighty front i belive the front of the car always goes first thus you have one via sil80 etc.

in japanese, 1 is "ichi", 5 is "go", and "ichigo" as one word means strawberry. don't get confused though, fifteen is "jyuugo," so the way they say it is more like S-one-five. (similar to hachiroku for eight-six as opposed to hachijyuuroku for eighty-six).

That is the Do-Luck kit and those wheels are the Advan Model 6. And no, that is not some type of conversion, that is a real S15 with the complete Do-Luck kit. If you don't believe me, check this site: http://www.do-luck-usa.comMy friend has a R34 and is part of Team D (Do-Luck sponsored cars). His car was at the SEMA show.
