Hmmmm.... sounds like I need to PM ionic about the grill.


OP: You could always go with a KuRookie for the 05/06 (like CandlestickPark's)
Or, HikkataDori makes a version of my bumper already modified for a perfect fit on the 05/06 (PM JohnnyOne, he rocked one before he sold the car)

I thought you were set on the Strafespeed front. There are definitely good options for 05/06. PM martyg35 for the KuRookie and hikkatadori or Dustin@StrafeAutomotive for the HikkataDori Nismo rep.

i was but i just dont think its worth it,

i like the idea of the strafe fenders and hood for the converstion but,
1-am in dubai so shipping will be really expensive.
2-05 to 03 convertion just doesnt sound to good.
3-it just wont be worth all the money and time.


Thanks for the help fella's

if ionic needs a 03/04 grill i can send him mine

You don't need fenders for the conversion OP just hood headlights and grille once u get the bumper. The grille and headlights are the cheap part

I disagree. I'd say the headlights are the most expensive parts. At a wrecker a hood can be found for $200 easy. Headlights are never less than $300 a pair.

He could always go with eBay headlights. 03/04s are so lucky to even have that option. Us 05/06 guys are completely stuck when it comes to headlights, they are crazy expensive from the dealer and on eBay.

^He was probably referring to the eBay headlights. They're down to like $150/pr or something crazy like that.

Like I side I like the strafespeed but at the end of the day its not worth the hassle and cost.

Most likely I'll order the kurookie/nisrookie be this week

Correct. He can get the ebay headlights for like $130 and reseal 'em to prevent condensation
