    I see the Japanese also have issues with front bumper fitting right.

    damn son. I agree with you on the wheel fitment. I understand this is just an internet forum, but be aware when you use the term "jap".

    If you're gonna go toss all this Nissan stuff at it, why not just start with one in the 1st place?

    ive got nothing against the japanese or their vehicles, in fact i was a mazda tech for a couple of years. im just a fan of mixing parts from different brands with the exception of wheels. even if it had an engine from another euro manufacturer (other than audi) i still wouldnt approve. just my $.02
