Default How is the USDM rad support saved

when you do a jdm front conversion teh spot welds are punched out of the usdm rad support right?
my questions on this, sorry if it sounds stupid... but like punching out the welds on the usdm bumper will still make it reusable later on?
and like the rebar and everythign else should be alright?

i couldn't find anything on the jdm posts ppl said, no one talked about the usdm parts after
i know probably cuz no one cares or whatever else, but wnated to know if anyone couldbe of help

Correct. If drilled out correctly using proper tool, spot welder drill bit, then the radiator support can be reused later on to reverse the conversion.

You could also just jump off the bandwagon and not install the JDM front

I wonder how much a USDM conversion would be worth in JDM land...

I doubt much considering they could just go to a junkyard and get one. the "JDM" front end is not the only G3 JDM front end they had.

they never had the usdm g3 front for 98+

finding a buyer yourself may be difficult in japan.

itr-j, your question was already answered btw.
