05 conversion in session, (PICS!)

Alright well i started on my 05 front end conversion earlier this week, just got it lookin pretty last night and heres some shots..

BEFORE!





DURING!



and btw for the 100 bucks id recommend just buyin an 05+ header panel, trimming and getting everything fitting right is a pita.

AFTER!









now i got the 05+ bumper in my garage and im still looking for a 05+ grill then ill send them off to be painted to match, no chrome. Im also going to probably get my light bar powdercoated black and return my 4 6" offroad lights for black ones.. later on though, i might look for some black rims similar to mine and change out the emblems for 05+ black ones. ah too much to do, and theres still more..

I have a nice amount of chips on my front end but thatll all be gone when i get my new bumper painted. as for the cost, i got a killer deal of 250 shipped for them, and it took me awhile to get that. The average best is around 400 bucks. Plus you gotta remember if you get some harley lights you can sell yours for about 100-200 easy.
