    JDM Front End Done!!! 56K Warning

    So I finally put on my bumper, since it ended up being 70 degrees in the east coast, plus I needed to do it before, i handed over the car next week to the turbo shop. Crash bar still has to get cut down little bit more..JDM heads are all done, still got to follow reelax's write up to get the highbeams on with the deode and relay..Still waiting on my super VR4 sides and rear..so wha u think?

    BTW: Anybody have a liberal grill here? how the hell do you get it to fit? like doesn't the Bracket and hood popper get in the way? Please help im still lost :evil:















    Heres my problem with the grill, anybody who could help please let me know...

    Hay IceDouTGaLanT when I hit up Cali he sait his fit perfect with no problem. He did ask if yours was a knock off, and if it is that might be the problem.

    Looks nice man.... one thing I do notice though, with the driving lights in the front bumper. On the JDM ones, the 2 inner ones are always lit when they are turned on, but the outer ones only light up when you are indicating to turn in that direction ( they don't blink they just light up ).

    As for the grille, I haven't seen too many here with that particular one on it, though I used to work for mitsubishi here, and still have good contacts. So I might see if they have imported one like that and take a few pics.

    does anyone know if those fogs wire up directly to the stock wires? My bumper and fogs wil be here next week---

    The fogs with the dual lights in them......anyone have a diagram?

  12. #12
    they dont wire directly up to the stock ones, what you have to do is cut the harness off the stock fogs, and attach wire from the harness which come with your JDM fogs to the stock exposed wires, so when you hit your swtch inside your jdm whould light up..fairly easy. for the sides it depends if you want them on all the time, or if you want to hook them up to yours turn signels, so they flash when u singel like the nissian maximas. if you want them to flash then just tap those wires to the turn wire on your side markers. i hooked my sides up so they stay on with the parking lights and not flash. hope that helps. if you need help PM ME

    I don't know the reasons why there is a gap. I attached the pic of the same grill. Please compare yours to this.

    have you tried lifting the hood hook up and then installing the grill?

    ...
    yup. this is correct. they are "cornering lights" meant to light up the direction you are turning. they are not meant as fogs and are not meant as signals. think of cadillacs' turning light system in the US.

    remove the hood hook or you can cut the back of the grill, either way your gonna have to make custom mounts.

    I found the urethane pad is wrong position. Slide the pad to right side of white clip.
