turbopath Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 (edited) Well, I need two new bumpers, and a fender. I was thinking, while I was at it I might as well get the other fender, headlights, and hood and get them from a 99.5 R50. To me this would make my ride a little better lookin. Will this stuff just hook right up or will I need to grab the bumper supports etc etc to get this going?

nissandoms47 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 newer pathfinders have different bumper reinforcements. the new ones have a front reinforcement unlike the old ones that just had the metal bumper. i think the rear might be the same. but just swap em anyways.

For the price your gonna pay for all those parts plus painting, you might as well put a down payment on a 99.5+ R50, IMHO...OR go all out and get into a VQ powered 01+, just my thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Certainly going to be much cheaper in the long run than having higher car payments again). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nissandoms47 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 i think thats why he is going to do the 99.5 conversion. so he can run the ARB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbopath Posted October 23, 2006 Author Share Posted October 23, 2006 (edited) well, I bought this thing super cheap knowing that it needed body work. So I can do the 99.5 conversion, fix the dents elsewhere, replace the interior, paint the whole thing, and still not have paid as much as a regular 98. I like to buy fixer uppers.
