JDM plus body kit

[mightytexn]

Will the front bumper from a body kit fit if I put a JDM front end on my car? I really like the JDM 1 piece headlights and the hood, but think I would still get a bodykit eventually, but if they wont fit together right I guess I'll just stickwith the JDM front.

The lights are longer so no a body kit wont fit without some custom body work.

The bumper just fits under the lights doesnt it? I didnt think the lights had any effect on the bumper fitting.

stealing my idea haha jj, it should work but im gonna get it shaved into the kit for a cleaner look with no filler

Alright sweet, its always nice to hear that something will work out

i personally of an idea i would get a sedan 1 piece headlights onto a hatch along with my WW RS kit and also put some jdm turn signals on it now that would look OG unless some1 else has done it. if so any pix to see the final product.

If you are using the SiR lights, bonnet and filler panel then make sure that the body kit front bumper mounts under the filler panel, not replacing it as it won't work with the JDM bonnet.

We found this out when a friend tried to install a JDM Mugen kit on his Aussie (USDM style) nose cone of his 4G. A quick trip to the wreckers for a late-run "face-lifted" SiR-style nose cone resolved the problem.

Personally I think the JDM bumper looks better anyway, but I'm biased

Alright thanks Setanta.....I will probly be keeping the whole JDM front for a while cause money comes very slowly when your a full time student, but eventually I would like to put a body kit on. I'll just have to find one now that fits under the filler piece instead of replacing it.
