the bumper hood and fenders? some kinda kit or no?

 

A few salvage yards and vendors of fbods will sell the whole front as a 'kit' from a totaled fbod. Tbyrne is selling one right now in the forsale section. And SpeedAutomotive (which used to be a supporting vendor here) sells them on their site, but I won't link to it since they do not advertise here anymore. You're on your own in that regard.

 

Yea there is no actual "kit" that I know of...the best way to do it is to just search for the parts individually and you should find some good deals....

 

i mean do the fenders bolt right up? hood 2?

 

Yea for the most part they will, you may need new brackets for the hood, but thats about it...just make sure you get the fenders too...

 

to use new headlights/front bumper i have to change : hood, fenders and front bumper? that all?

 

isnt that enough, if you find oem parts its going to cost you close to 2 grand with new parts, so have fun looking around for used parts, like stated before tbyrne is selling a front clip for 1000 bucks, if your really going to do this conversion ide buy that clip quick

 

I wish someone offered a kit to convert to a 98+ Firebird front end (not TA) I plan on swapping to that front end on my car in about 2-3 years when I repaint it (probably Sunset Orange)

 

I'll move this over to the Appearance Section. That is where this particular topic is talked about most. Good luck!

 

The front clip that I have is really wanting to find a new home

It's red and comes with the stock hood, fenders. nose, headlights and driving lights. I'll also include any supports to go along with it.

Thanks,

Why can't this be June 3, 2004 where I have the Z and can afford to do this?

 

To answer your question, YES, there is a conversion kit! Made by a company in Japan, it simply replaces the 93-97 front bumper with a retro-style 98-02. Uses same fenders, hood, AND headlights so you don't have to get 98+ ones. I'm trying to find the picture I saw a while ago, so I'll keep you updated when I find more info. Actually looks really good IMO.
