06 front on an 05

[ViperPete]

Hey all.

I was just thinking. Is it possible to swap over the 2006 bumper, headlights grill and fenders onto my 2005?

Does everything line up perfectly? I like the look of the 2006 much better but bought an 05 because they are supposed to be faster.

I know that some cars are interchangeable. Like my 1998 Avenger front end with a 1998 Eclipse or the Dodge Magnum and a Chrysler 300C.

Thanks.

I have seen it done by someone on here before. Turned out nice. You get the nice 06 look without that ugly @$$ interior.

Ya its been done From what I remember it's Bolt on

 

[ViperPete]

Anyone on here have it done?

i remember some doing it but i am thinking it was a total pita to do different feinders grill assembly, bumper thinking there where a couple more things that had to be changed.

I agree I like the bumper, but dislike headlights and grille. Especially headlights uke:

Best of both. 06 style bumper, but keeps the 04-05 headlights. No fenders, headlights, grill,and hardware to buy.

Anyone on here have it done?

I did to my 03. If I remember the radiator bracket is the main thing in order for the grill to bolt up

Great find homie

I think I like the 2006 headlights better. I'm not sure though.

 

[wesalbert]

I had a 06 and tried everything to make them look better. Those big chrome things sucked. Especially on a dark truck.
I tried headlight covers, painted eyebrows, finally Night Runner headlights.

said it was a total pain in the dick because he wanted everything perfect...
