DC/DB jdm front end conversion
i picked up a front end this week, although, i've been hearing the radiator support can just be bolted on after making precision cuts in the frame. i've heard of a couple of people here in SD doing it that way. my question is if it's bolted on, what effects does that have on the frame flexing?

so you can remove the support from the US and replace it from the JDM one...you only need the top bar with the center post that looks like a T.
you dont need the whole support

i like that, looks pretty clean.
quick question since we're getting into detail about this conversion... with the USDM 94-97 ITR lip, can it be used on the JDM front end?
