OK TNT tell us, did you have to spend the whole tax return or just most of it?
Spill the beans, how much (for the mirrors).

Looks like chevy mirrors. What about the 08 body line. I could care less about the core support fitting. I want to know if the body lines are the same so I can get the grill. I can make anything fit.

You might have to do some triming on that grille to get it to fit...since it is connected to the hood? If you didn't get the newer hood. Then I am sure the headlight widths are not the same so you would have to change those out....and they are mounted to the fenders and not to a header panel...since the new ones don't have a header panel. Then I don't know if the bottom of the grille would be the same height as the older style...plus it most likely wouldn't fit the curves of the older style bumpers...so then some adapters would need to be made to adjust the height and support of the newer bumper...

It is something that probably could be done but with alot of fab work.

Keep us posted on the process...

I can not believe that they are actually cheaper! That is amazing... but I still do like the older style better...
