Default 95 S14 front end conversion questions

Ok here goes. I didnt see this posted anywhere on the boards so I thought Id ask. Whats needed for me to convert a 95 S14 front end to a 97-98. A list of cheap places to get the parts wouldnt hurt either. Thanks alot in advance.

headlights/bumper/fenders/hood im guessing, possibly a core support. some of it you can tell by looking at pictures. find a pic of the side view of both and see if the fenders meet over the headlight which i think it does, so your most likely gonna need all of those. googles your friend ya kno

Going kouki is not cheap. Its 400 for just the headlights no corner included.
Not to mention corners, fenders, hood, and bumper, and bumper support, radiator support if you want to do it right.

I was convinced zenki to kouki was no modification? :/
Just HL brackets, hood, fenders, and headlights.

I had originally heard there was no conversion needed however when I started REALLY looking to do a kouki conversion to my zenki I found out to make it overall right you would need to do some converting.. from what I have researched it is possible to do only fenders lights hood and bumpers.. however im a perfectionist and would go all out...if you find out more let me know though because I am still debating doing a kouki front on mine too but I will wait till I go SR first

oh and as for cheap places.. depends what you consider cheap from what I have researched the parts can be expensive. Also are you planning to do the conversion yourself or paying someone else to do it?

If you find cheap parts share the knowledge because I could very well be interested in a few months

Id do the conversion my self then have somebody else paint it unless I can bet the parts already painted to match ;p From what it looks like to me ebay is the cheapest way to go for the headlights and corners. As for the bumper and fenders I may check a few junk yards before I shell out what people are askin on ebay lol
