Maxima Front end conversion on 02 I35 Complete!!
Hey guys,
I posted a topic about doing a conversion to an 02 I35 back in March.
The car has been done since July (minus paint) and i thought i would update anyone interested.
Back story behind the car, I bought it in March with damage to the front end. It had sat for 8 months at a apartment complex after the owner moved away. I drove it around a few days and fixed the coolant leak from the water neck being broken from the accident. I started tearing it apart, removed the radiator support and found the frame rails were bent pretty good! Towed it out to my work and straightened the frame rails and welded in a new radiator support. Went to my local wrench n go and sourced a whole front end off of a 03 maxima! Heres what i have for parts.
-Hood, front fenders, bumper -$75
- Front crash parts- $40
- Headlights -$35
-Wiring pigtails- Free
-Foglights- Free
Let me know what you think!
More to come! 350z anniversary wheels (gunmetal) going on soon! as well as exhaust and K sport springs!
