    I wish I had the time, and the money to do this one in real life. Just a face graft, not a full clip swap...t4r.jpg

    Here is my quick rendering of it. I think if you leave it stock it looks dumb! But a built one with matching flares and a roof rack would look pretty sweet!

    That is what I have been working on. I just have to make a little grill for underneath the headlights to match the cutout.

    The problem with that is that the lines of the hood don't match the grill. So, if you want to do the full conversion, everything ha to be changed. Lights hood bumper grill and supports. That is why I'm fitting them in the way I am. I just like the new lights. It is not the final product, still working on it.

    That looks really cool so far. I just like the idea of having something out of the norm.

    What if the grid material where you cut was just filled in? Bad rendering but something like this:taco.jpg
