I am trying to figure this myself, but better to ask before I make a VERY bad mistake. I would like to convert the front end of my 240 to the S-15 using importfan.com's converion. After that converion, would I be shopping for a 240's front bumper, or a S-15's front bumper. You see, the one they sell with the conversion is not really to my liking, but the S-15 kit by TOP SECRET they also sell IS....help <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

Now I have read the other post similar to this, but I am not too sure it clears me. If I already do the conversion, will it bolt up, or with mild modification?

Sorry for the repost, but I am suppose to order the kit soon.

After the S15 (Strawberry Face) conversion, your whole front is S15, so when you check for parts like carbon fibre hood, headlamps, signals, check for S15 parts.

no longer will you fit S13 or 14 parts properly in the front..
