s15 front-end conversion question

I got hail damage on my zenki and considering a full front-end conversion. Not sure whether to get a kouki, or the ever so rare s15 conversion right now. I know the kouki conversion bolts right up, but what about the s15? I've heard different things. Some people say it bolts on but you must mold the fenders on right so it lines with the body, anyone know? Also does anyone know the price difference of a kouki versus an s15?

They both look nice, I like the sharp aggressive look of the kouki, but I also like the nice sleek s15 which looks more exotic. I am leading towards the s15 right now b/c you don't see them anywhere here.

My S15 conversion kit was a pain to get on. The body shop couldn't even use the fenders that it came with. they had to use my stock fenders and mold the headlights into them. The whole thing cost me a little under $5,000 thats with them taking the dings out of the car and respraying it. Looks awesome though.

If by nowhere you mean every other Integra / S14 on the face of the planet.

JDM Kouki S14 = Clean OEM Style
Strawberry Face S14 = uhhh... well... at least you'll get into Super Street / Import Tuner

You paid $5000 to put lights on your car that don't even bolong on there?? That's just wrong, I hope you have a kick ass setup under your hood.

the strawberry face looks exotic and sleek, what I like about it. The s14 kouki is nice but at the same time, meh nothing special. And $5k that's crazy! what kind of aftermarket fenders did you buy?

It was a whole kit...it came with the headlights, carbon fiber hood, fenders, and front bumper. The fenders were just shitty

It's not my car, but it's the stock front end from a 97-98 240SX (with aftermarket bumper). You can get the lights on the 95-96 240SX to, everything bolts right up since it's basically the same car.

you should be able to the do the conversion for way under $5k ... max should b around $3k places like vis have kits for $2k it comes with hood, conversion fenders ... which u really do need, bumpers and the headlights.
