From the pics, it looks like the front end is a standard Silvia S13 bumper. The headlights are the early-version, non-projector dual square lamps. Center grille, fenders, and hood are all standard JDM OEM pieces.

triples are all over the place... but they're also the most common Silvia headlight you see on conversions here in the U.S. because they're from later model Silvias... IMO the square-type is more rare, but if you're into the whole "projector headlights" thing, whatever floats your boat

Nope. The N+ series is the front lower lip, sides, and rear. Your red picture is URAS lip kit on OEM Nissan body parts.

rewire, plugs are different. On a related note since we're talking lights, you need the headlamp brackets also if you're converting
