what ALL parts will i need to completely convert my front end to a 98 and newer style. i know that i need the hood, front bumper, and headlight assemblies. what else will i need?

 

Fenders, also i'm not sure if the doors are different.

 

Its a pita and expensive..id spend the money to make it fast

 

Spend your money to make it fast?
Aren't Camaro's alrady fast?

 

Your car doesnt' have an ls1 so it'd be kind of misleading and dumb.

 

KillerTA, how is it misleading and dumb? i like the look of the ls1's front end, so i'm putting one on my car. i hit a deer so i can put any front end i want on it and since i can do that, i'm putting a ls1's on it. now, what parts will i need to do this?

Antz97ZNJ, i'm also doing some performance mods this winter, but i'm getting the entire car repainted and a new front end.

My 97 Z28, yes, camaros are fast, but i have a trans am, and they are fast too...but i want it faster

 

If I had the extra money Id do the swap, the LS1 SS look has been growing on me.

 

Go race a new cobra, wrx sti, or evo then ask me that again

 

so, has anybody done this conversion (i hear of a lot of people doing it with camaros, but i'm not sure if all the parts bolt up the same on camaros compared to trans ams). i'm pretty sure i need a new hood, bumper, headlight assemblies, and i think the fenders. do i also need anything under the hood like the k-member or anything? i want to make sure i know everything i need before i start it.

 

Im pretty sure this is an exterior thing. No k member, etc needs to be swapped out.

 

i hope i don't have to swap out too much cause i'm getting really excited about doing it. i was thinking about selling my car in a few years and buying a newer one (i like lt1's better, but i like the exterior look of the ls1's better), but now that insurance is paying for it all, i'll just get what i want...i was hoping i could find somebody that's done it to see how everything lines up and what all i need. everybody that did it with camaros said it just lined right up and worked perfectly...i hope it's the same with trans ams.

 

you need the following, and I don't think I am forgetting anything....

-hood
-headlights and housing
-both fenders
-front bumper cover
-front bumper
-fog lights (maybe yours will work if they are any good)
-bumper support???

Thats most of it....

 

thanks! this helps a lot. if anybody knows anything else i'll need, please let me know. and if anybody has tried it, let me know how it went.

 

Wasnt speedautomotive selling kits like this a while back?

 

I know someone and its all exterior. Lights, hood and bumper. I can get you the headlights for 160each shipped. Brand new with bulbs. There are other options like the halo lights for about 175 each.
