You would most likely need to have some moulding and cutting done because since they aren't the exact same shape. It probably wouldn't be too complicated though.

Wow... a real answer! And nobody jumped up this guy's ass. That's a first :P Must say the conversion looks really good. Any idea how much money was involved? Doesn't look like it costs $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ from what the usual people say. Heh

I think it looks GAY. I've seen one in person at the Nopi National show. Everyone thought it was a skyline cept for the other 240 owners parked near it who laughed at it.

it looks like shit...but it's your car.

and yes, modification is needed. usually when you take one headlight designed for one car and put it on another car that it wasn't designed for, it will need modification. common sense, really.

Re: r33 front on a 96 240???

y would anyone wanna put ANYskyline body panel on their car? imo, the skyline isn't a very attractive car. which is my biggest complaint about the car. of course i can't talk shit about what's inside (which is more important anyway), but if you're gonna take anything from the skyline, take the stuff that REALLY makes it a skyline (in other words, not the outside).

Hmm, I kinda like it, only thing is it needs a wider body because it looks odd with the big front and slim ass.
