To me.. and its just my opinion.. I think its pointless.. 

 

Im not saying I dont like it.. I just think that the 510 frontend looks like a hako anyway.

 

Moreover the 510 front is perfect anyway.. I think it has a cleaner look than the Hako.

 

 

that is all.

nah for real.. Anything that you HAVE to not run its front bumper AND flares to look good is a nono to me.

 

If anything it looks the same!.. all that just to give the 510 a scowl?

Again.. I dont hate it.. do yo thang shawty.. If its your car and you want to pay $5000 for the front to look like a Hako then go for it.

 

 

I will say this.. I have seen a Hako WAGON before in real life while I was in Japan.. and I gotta say.. a 510 Wagon LOOKS WAY BETTER stock.

Almost looks like a boser hood for the 510. While i wouldn't ever do it, New products means continued interest in the vehicles which means more new products. I like that idea.

Might be an easier sell if they just repopped a Bluebird SSS front end instead.

 

I see this a lot.

 

There isn't "a" Bluebird SSS grill.

Nissan changed the grill and tail lights basically every year of production. 

 

I assume by "repop" you are talking about the plastic grill.  The grill is the same for all 1971-1972 (46-47 in Japan) production year (1972 model) bluebirds.

SSS had an SSS badge.   GL had a big ol GL badge.  DX cars had the central rocket ship badge or whatever that is.  But the grill is the same.

The bottom of both sides of that pic.

 

I dont own a 510, so I'm not itching. But those are the best looking, to me, fro t and rear to the 510 2/4drs.

What's the point? Most drivers on the road don't know the difference anyway so can't appreciate it. How would a '69 RS Camaro go over with a '68 Firebird front end on it?

It's would just look like a firebird, no one would notice.

What matters is that the owner likes it and doesn't care what others think about it or him. 

 

If you think about it, it demeans both cars. If you love your 510 why would you do this to it. If you like the Hako why put the front end on a mere 510. Does doing this make it better???
