Best place to get the s13 silvia front? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

lotusdrift · 05-26-2005, 11:27 AM

Anyone know some good places to get the s13 silvia front/conversion. My car is getting body work and full paint (the stock deep black), so basically its now or never with the direction I want to go on the body work. It has a cheap FRP kit on it right now that I was going to have the body man fit nicely (it came on the car when I bought it...same design as all the other jdm kits, fairly clean).

Oh and if anyone that reads this has a black s13 with a silvia front, please post a picture as to help me decide to keep the kit or go with oem fitment.

(and I realize this is probably an annoying noob question, but after looking around I didn't see too many great options, so figure I would ask for input...try not to flame too hard)

The best place to get a Silvia front is off of a Silvia.

Try http://www.PasswordJDM.com and http://www.PandaGarage.com

Also check the for sale forum there are lots of parts floating around there sometimes you can piece it together for a little cheaper. Good luck.

Ya I saw that 'group buy', those other two links that akademik shared are a much better deal I think (dual projectors and potentially cheaper). I love phase2, but the extra expense isn't worth it, especially since a few dings or bad paint will all be taken care of by the body work I am getting done.

Thanks for the help, please keep the links coming if possible.

Try Venus auto, I think they were selling them for 650, i believe.....

bcrume · 06-08-2005, 05:24 PM

they raised their rates for the summer time, now it's $650 for a silvia front with fiberglass fenders and $850 for metal. I'm looking for one too. There are a couple places in LA that sell them for $700-$750, I wish I could find one in the bay are for $700.

I was going with panda garage, best price I found (770).

I ended up ordering from JGY customs, despite the fact their metal fronts cost 850, the shipping was super cheap and saved me about 80 bucks over panda garage. But I live in the same state as JGY (east coast).

that wasn't even chuckle worthy, try again. Better yet just don't bother posting.

And you do realize your join date is 2004, "since 2002"

And you do realize that he had a old username, and the join date on that was... oh.

2004.

He's been schooling people on Zilvia since 2002, when he didn't even have a 240SX?

What a pimp.
