Hey guys I got a 2000 Tibby and I and converting the front end to a 1999 Tibby, I would like some help on what i need to buy and how many headaches will I encouter......

Is it a tough converion or is simple bolt on's.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

 

I finally get to say it....."use the search feature" this topic has been covered many times before!!! smile.gif

But I'm not a prick!

What your gonna need is new hood, fenders, front bumper and headlights. I've also been informed but not confirmed you might need a new rad support but I doubt it. It will be a bit pricey but worth...check your local junkyards for some of these parts! Good luck!

 

i got corner lights for sale

 

frist you dont need new fenders, they are to same , but I will trade you my front end if you want,

 

LMAO..if you think the fenders are the same between the 1st and 2nd gen..you better get your eyes checked there my friend. The fenders are completely different in the area where the turb signals are. But I'm sure you knew that and were only testing us right? rolleyes.gif tongue.gif

 

I was gonna let him find out on his own cause he doesn't like to hear the real anwser which brings me to the question why did he even bother asking the question in the first place?

 

I'm just curious, why change to an earlier year? I guess you like the first gen. better.

 

gen1 headlights
gen1 turn signals
gen1 front bumper shell
gen 1 hood
gen 1 radiator support/cross brace
gen 1 hood latch assembly and cable

I know this is forevery old but yes they are the same, get this same part number same part,

 

just buy a body kit and that should be fine. for one thing a mps kit will remove the vent in the front and make the car look somewhat like a in integra or celica. (i like the mps kit also) or get a kit and modify that to add different lights. I prefer the 2nd look (cuz i have one), but i like the 1st gen also. but, to convert backwards isn't the way to go. I've seen 1st gen front end converted to 2nd front ends. yeah.
