Possible front end for my SE
I know the general concensous is to leave it stock but I have been planning a custom kit for some time for my 85 SE. I'm looking to go wide body and am not entirely pleases with whats available so here we go.
The front end is obviously from a 240SX and the rear wing was a gift from my wife. I plan on taking some inspiration from the Swedish car for the flare effect. If I don't go that direction then I will be looking towards the fender flares that have been talked about a great deal lately.
I am in the process of doing some minor rust repair and then will be turbo charging the car. The ecu of choice is Megasquirt.
There will obviously be some attention drawn to the car when it is finished but thats okay because by that time I will be moving into the State Police ranks

the 240 front end looks sweet.. nice smoth lines with a hint of angularity.. it should mach the rx nicely... one thing to consider: where are you gonna put the marker lights? shouldnt be a problem for someone with the ***** to consider this project.. just giving you a heads up (and i wanna know... its gonna look sweet!)

Funny never too many comments on any of my posts. Any who the timeline on this project is rather long as I have very little expendable cash right now. The structural and power upgrades come first even though I already have some components for the body redesign.
I really just wanted to get a few opinions on the front air dam. Thanks for those with positive words and I will keep you all updated.
