Is your car the same color? The top right looks like a different color, maybe it's just the light though. If it's the same color, you have a very unique car. Not only was that color rare when it was offered, it wasn't offered on 97-99 as far as I know. Cool! I like the fogs too, they seem to fit with the car very well.

Ya, the color is the same, the left two pics wee taken a while back and scanned in, then the other pics were taken with a digital camera yesterday and came out much different, the left pictures are edited by lightening them up because the scanner was dark, the color wasnt available in the later years, a darker more brown lookin color was, but i love the color and chicks totally dig it

rear converstion

sup man, i did the front end conversion because i thought the 97s looked better but didn't realy notice a difference in the rears so i was wondering why you did it. was it for a stillen kit? also did you have to change anything other than the actual bumper cover?

I think he means the Altezzas, cause that's definitely a 95-96 trunklid. Look at the ridge running across the lid between the taillights, the 97-99 doesn't have that.

Has ANYONE actually done the rear conversion? I have seem numerous front end conversions, but still have yet to see one rear conversion. Car looks nice, BTW.

It cost about $700 to do it, if that seems like a lot its because i had to get it painted and i have the best painter in all of austin texas, its about a $200 paint job just for the bumper, plus the price includes installation and all pieces including the bumper and grille, the front was the only true conversion, not the rear, the back was changd by adding the spoiler (mine didnt come with one) and the altezzas which gave the car a whole new appearance

I do believe i am the only one with the front bumper conversion on it in this color, people ask me if it is brand new all the time, we have maybe 3 others in town in the same color, and thats out of over a million people, so i would say its pretty rare, ive got a wood dash on the interior, it makes it look classy, but hey its a four door but it is still a sports car

Nice fit!!!

the front job looks great. Looks like it came that way. More elegant. Even tho I preffer the 95-96 grill they look meaner, just a Nissan logo comming at you. (or the 97-99se)

The back looks better than I thought it would look like. Big red lights, no excuses for the old ladies.
But, its screaming for a body kit now.

Good Job!

Ya, i have always been a fan of chrome, so i had to have that one instead of getting i painted, you are right about the body kit, but it may be a while for that, i have other priorities, but it will come someday
