Front End Conversion
 
All I ask is that you PLEASE don't go flaming me with personal opinions.

Now, my question is, how hard would it be to convert a 93-97 to a 98+ front end? (not the whole car, just the front end).

Like I said, I'm not here to ask you what you think of it, I'm not here to listen to people say, "Why ruin a perfectly good..." or "Why not just buy a 98+?"

Just answers...that's all I ask...

THANK YOU :p This is exactly what I wanted to know and actually, I sort of figured that's how it would work...How much did it cost you to do this conversion?

2500 bucks for parts and to paint the front clip, do a search and youll find all you need to know, theres a list of parts out there that will tell you what you need, and that price is with getting oem parts at a good price, good luck

SH*T!...hehehehe...what if I find them in a junkyard or something? (painting would be cheap for me, I have an uncle that will do it)

if you can find an entire front clip at a junk yard that would be the way to do it, i got all my parts from a dealer, and i got lucky paying only 600 bucks for a oem ss hood

What all do I need? Off the top of my head I can only think of hood, fenders, bumper, and headlights...anything else?

Tatanko 10-28-2003 06:45 PM

All those parts off of eBay can be had for about $1,000...


ANYBODY wanna tell me what else I would need? :D
