I was expecting something horrid when I read the title, but in seeing it I'd have to agree that it actually looks good!

Looks ok to me, would probably be a fairly simple conversion. Definately would be cheaper than trying to source a pair of NEW Skyline headlight assy's.....last time I checked they were @$600 ea :

The headlights somehow make it look "American", if that makes sense? Like a Japanese import destined for the American market. I don't make any sense here, do I?

Get rid of the bars & put in the BA mesh as well, and it'd look really good.

Not too bad at all if you ask me, but then again, no-one did.

xr lights would have probably looked better, and i don't like how it meets with the qtr panel..
other than that, good job. |

That is one of the tougher skyline front ends I have seen, looks good. I am just glad they did not put a bulge on it (too much)

Doesn't look to bad. I would never on a skyline (through my own choice). Still umming and arhing but at the moment not to bad.

I like the car itself but not the headlight job. There is just something about it that doesn't look right IMO. The original R33 headlights are slimmer and suit the car, but the BA headlights look too big on it.

Not being a skyline nut, therefore unable to picture right now what the stock lights look like, I reckon it looks good and I probably wouldnt even pick the mod if I had a look at the car without knowing

Come to think of it, it makes it look very similar to an R34 front.
