    is this feasible ? I have a raptor type grill now which I would have to put up for sale.... I'm assuming I would need a new hood and lights not sure about the front fenders. I've heard they will work. Here's the kicker.... I have a Demello offroad bumper mounted so I won't need the lower bumper parts/fog lights but not sure if that bumper can work with a conversion like this. Any input please ??

    you need new hood, lights, trim fillers under the lights and the grill plus some attachment hardware. you do not need new fenders.

    if you keep that bumper you will have a gap at the bottom between the new grill and where the old one went. it doesn't go down as far.
