My 1991 240sx got smashed the other day. I need a new front end, so why not ditch the pop ups and go jdm… seeing as the pop ups are more difficult to work with in collision repair.

SO what do I need? Rad support? hood- headlights- bumper- fenders- corner lights- bumper rebar? And what is involved with making the headlights fit in a usdm 240 rad support?

Help me out, it seems like I will only be buying a set of headlights/ corner lights from a silvia… since I plan on using wide fenders, carbon bonnet, and body kit for the bumper…

thanks  
jason
