Complete 180SX Conversion- Few things i need help with..

Just got my new 240, and Im ready to make the first few initial buys. Well, instead of going the Silvia conversion route on my 240SX, Im going to stick to the roots and just do a 180SX conversion, so that wont require too much. Ive found a rear garnish which Im about to purchase, along with clear signals and all of that. I havent decided which body kit or whatever Im going with, nor have I found the controller arms for a sleepy conversion.

Anyways, one specific problem I have, is the '240SX' logo on the back small window of my fastback... would the best way be to maybe find somebody to create a small black-backed vinyl sticker with the 180SX logo? Where would one find something like this?

What other small things and whatnot could I be missing, interior and exterior, and where can I find them, other than ebay? Thanks alot guys, and I will keep you all updated on this project.

Also, I was going to mention that this was Kuoki 180SX conversion.

You can find 180sx rear windows on ebay...but they are a little hard to find. If you want to go real kouki 180, then you need the kit for it. Check Jspec for it.

Im looking on the jspec site and I dont see the front bumper anywhere...

And yeah, i'm about to order the kuoki tails and currently looking for the spoiler and the stickers for the window.... easier said than done however.

I know it's not a 'conversion', but I wanna do something unique, and I dont really like sil-eighty conversions, and my car isnt a s15, so thats silly... Im still considering a bodykit vs kuoki front bumper conversion actually, but the tails, stickers, etc. Im for sure doing.

I like the low profile appearance of OEM bumpers. JDM OEM of corse. I have a kouki s14 and would go for the jdm bumper over most body kit bumpers.
