Around $2g for a Kouki conversion and at least $4.5k for S15 conversion and you have to use special conversion fenders.

i hope that 4.5K for the s15front end comes with paint job. or the prices here in this side of the country is hella expensive.

I think Cody knows what he is doing as far as the front end swap is concerned. The parts are metal and bolt right up. Every s15 swap on an s14 I have seen in person has cracks on the fenders (however small, they are still there) and there are always little gaps everywhere where things just dont line up quite right. If you have an s14 w/o any real bad front end damage present, the 97-98 front will go on flawlessly. I have seen it done in my driveway buy a couple friends that had no spectacular gifts involving body work. Here it is now:

By any chance did this person paint their CF hood white now? I've seen a nissan up around doraville that looks like that, but the hood is white painted CF. Sam and I saw it at a gas station. I wanted to make sweet love to it lol.
