The very same!

The very same!

I remember you starting a thread over there about fabing a 3v kit, dang that a long time ago. Either way if you can do that, I'm guessing you'll have no issues in getting that front end to fit.

It's missing something! I think I'm liking this conversion.

 

[shark tales]

yea its missing, grills, lips, aux lights, lower bumper splitter. i am intrigued of that will work. i used my 08 one and drilled and used plastic tabs where it lined up. this looks much more challenging

Sick, I need to do this.

 

[one eyed willy]

All lights, grills, lower lip will bolt on just like factory. Outside and inside will look like it came from the factory this way, even with the radiator cover removed. I have all the parts....including 2013 gt500 headlights.

Back on topic....those "conversion" fenders ....well, they really are not conversion fenders. They are missing the lower section of the fender meant for the 2010 bumper brackets.

So just be aware, if you buy them, they are not a bolt on deal...I fiberglassed the section they left off at. Best I figure, these fenders will only work with their front bumper unless you fabricate the lower section to hold the 2010 bumper bracket.

Can you take pics of that?

 

[one eyed willy]

Post 104 has pics of the fenders, if you find a picture of a 2010 fender you can see what's missing.

This has not been a bolt on project the way I'm doing it.cutting, welding and body work required!

 

[shark tales]

ooooh i know what you mean. the bracket hookup piece. oh snap what pain lol

Yup....so how they claim they are "conversion" fenders....I have no idea,lol

 

[shark tales]

I can't wait to see how the lines flow with the rear of your car.

In terms of the fenders, would it be easier to buy some 2010 fenders, cut them down the center of the wheel well and then weld the 05 fenders on to it from the cut back?
