Hi,

Anyone installed a s13.5 conversion? I want to know how much for the installation and which body shop can do it. And what parts do i need except the fenders, bumper, hood, hood hinge and light braket.

Thanks for any help.

strawberry - s15 front end on an S13.

There are 1 or 2 guys on the forum who have done it, so maybe they can help you out with the answers. However, I don’t think that it’s a simple bolton affair.

I did it, and I must say be prepared to spend, and don’t go cheap because it will hurt you later. Install was close to 1500, but the you don’t know until its installed, I would suggest a monetary buffer if you are looking at getting the conversion done.
