And she aboslutely FALLS IN LOVE with the GT4 front end. I wish I had shown her that BEFORE the body shop ordered, painted, and installed a brand new OEM front end while repairing our Deer strike incident.
So.......now the question becomes....how expensive is the front end conversion and what's involved? She wouldn't shut up about it so I KNOW it's coming down the line. -------------------- |

With the regard to the "and whats involved" part:
The actual installation is fairly easy. If you order all the parts you're supposed to, it doens't take that much. If you've never taken apart the front bumper off, and have to learn that for the first time, probably looking at about 4-5 hours. If you've done it before, the work shouldn't take you more than a few hours. The tricky part is the hood latch. Either get the real gt-4 hood latch (hard to find sometimes) or you have to weld on an extension to the existing hood latch. I welded mine, and can send you pictures if you want. If you have any questions, please let me know! ps- If you're going to do the conversion, you should think about getting the projector headlights, and clear high beams. They look really awesome. Although it is an additional $700 or so. -------------------- psalm 69 |
