6.0 front end conversion questions
This weekend I was mudding the truck and got stuck pretty deep, truck trying to pull me out ended up backing into me and ruining the front end all the way back to the radiator. I was thinking this is the time for a new look, thinking 6.0 conversion. The kits online are pretty expensive and my shop has a good deal with lkq and I was wondering if I just buy used 6.0 parts what would I have to buy to do the conversion? New header panel? Help me out

By 6.0 parts, I assume you mean the 05-07 headlights, grille and bumper?
You can do JUST the headlights and grille, either by cutting the stock header, or by buying the newer style header (around 100 bucks, easy to do).
If you want to do the bumper too, you'll need new brackets, braces, foglites, etc.
There are some 'how to' threads in the tech stickys at the top of the page.
BTW, I got my parts all from Craigslist, Pick n Pull or Ebay!

I got everything for an 05-07 conversion brand new on ebay for a total of about $600. That included shipping. I mean everything. Well everything except the header panel, which I just cut.
You just have to shop it and compare.
