Need help coverting a 2000 front end to 2003+

Post by Bluerocketsneeks » Tue Jul 10, 2007 7:46 pm

I have a 2000 ES and i started putting on my new 2003+ bumper (actually the whole front clip) but the bumper isn't matching up with the holes... particually the clip on each side between the grill and headlight.... the bumper is too far away... did i do something wrong or is this normal for the conversion?

not trying to thread-jack, but i've got a Q and it looks like you guys might be able to help. Will a 03+kaminari turbo front facia bolt up on a 2001 as long as I replace headlights with 03+? Are the lines clean and tight? Thanks in advance.

So what was wrong with your 2000 bumper? Maybe you should $ell that and the lights on here. I can think of at least one guy who needs the lights if they're in decent shape (namely Supermanneon).

I also think if you have the 2000 fogs, there's a number of people who will prolly want them on here.
Drive it like you stole it, and work on it like you married it.
