wouldn’t doing it right consist of buying proper parts then? I’m really not trying to be a dick but if you are serious then I don’t see how you can not see that as an option because they are the real deal.

well in fairness, I have no idea what you’ve ordered lol. I was just saying in general, thats how I always look at things when modifying a car of mine. I would agree with Travis’ idea then, that is your best/most cost effective solution you are looking for.

What year is your 240? Have you checked out OEM parts from other Nissans of similar years? Quite a few parts are interchangeable.
