Got anymore pics of where the rear middle light bit is painted???

[Mase]

must be li,ke the s13's with the same guard holes etc and fronts. hmmmm, i need it to match my onevia. Anyone wanna swap fronts?? Won't swap unless it's white as well, i've been down the path of painting and don't wanna even think about it again!!!

[inark]

theres actually quite a few around... id say it cant be that hard to cconvert them over.... but who wants a laurel front on a ceffy?? why trade down?

[DJ984]

That white one that mase posted looks tops! if i had a white cef i'd trade ya mase... but i don't so i wont... lol!

I would consider swapping the front end from my white cefiro...........but are they the same paint code? from memory the laurels don't have the coloured pearls in the factory paint whereas the cefiros do.

You would need to do paint so they matched properly.

[DJ984]

Is it a straight bolt-up job?... do you swap quarter pannels, bonnets, front bar, lights and grille?.... or do you need to change other bits and pieces? or less bits?.... (just curious).

[RiverSide]

Basically the swap consists of everything if FRONT of the doors......guards/bonnet/headlights/grill/bumper etc etc

[inark]

same as most nissan front end conversions

do a rear end conversion just to be different

Speaking of which, I got a quote from Nissan on a A31 rear qtr panel and how long it would take to get. Who wants to guess?

Riverside, the laurel has a pearl through it. I only got the car home thursday night and since then i've fitted a front mount and installed piping, today is my chance to pull it out of the garage and give it a wash and a polish. I'll take a snip of it and see if the pearl comes out on the digital camera.

Grrrr, trade down??? How do you figure that. Once the car is tidied up i'll take a few snips and you tell me if you really think its a trade down!!! :fart:

[blur]

a cefiro is definatly a step down from a laurel in the nissan range... id think the pillarless design would be heaps more expensive to design (not saying its stronger or anything) and that would be reflected in its new car price. does anyone know what cefiros and laurels were worth new???

theres a UK site which i cant remember off the top of my head which had the prices of both as new from japan so was in yen...

i dont like laurels... i didnt know they were piller-less... i that was juyst the CIMA.

regardless... the laurel just doesnt appeal to me as much.

definately a trade down in looks to me...

i must stress that this is my opinion and is in no way biased because i have one.... riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight lol but seriously... i seen laurels and cefiros before i ended up with a ceffy and the ceffy just appealed to me far more... and yes ive seen plenty of modified ones on many import sites (no not jspec or prestige.... actual japanese workshop and yards etc)
