Hey all!

Looking for a GT4 ST205 nose cut with all parts out of the box to perform a front-end conversion (including hood).
Silver preferred as that's my car's original color.

LHD hood latch would be a nice bonus so I can swap that out (in case the clip is RHD)

Located in the southeast but can discuss shipping.

* Bump

Would be cool to do a drop-off deal, or (if not too far) meet half-way.

Any color is ok as long as no damage.
Prefer projector headlights, but not necessary.
Working fogs.
Modified (weld) or OEM 205 LHD hood latch.

Don't mean to discourage you or anything, but in the 5 years that I was following the GT4 front end listings (purchased one myself, too), I have not seen one that matches your requirements.
The last one - yellow set on eBay - sold 5/19 for $1500 very quickly, had busted low beams, no fogs/lower grill, and enough scratches and dents to require minor body work and repaint. And, they are ALL like that or worse: by the time the car is written off in Japan, chopped up, thrown in a container with wheels, tires, and other car parts, it does not come out pretty on the other end. Nobody is wrapping this stuff and handling it with white gloves.
Projector headlights now seem to be going for $650-$700 a set in good condition. I sold mine for $450 last year.
As for modified hood latch: I have never seen an OEM LHD one for sale. The stuff from Europe is all rusted into oblivion by now, along with LHD ST205 steering racks. Converted RHD one can only come from somebody who modified it themselves, and I may have seen 1 for sale in 5 years. You're pretty much going to have to make one yourself.

Hope this helps, and good luck with your search.
