After seeing the gen2 Cuda kit on SR, I started thinking..

I said to my self "self, do you think it would be possible to graph a 02 front end onto, the 99 front?.. "

Is this possible. I love the way the Cuda looks on the 02 but can't get it for mine. (yes I know, there is a 97-99 kit, but i like the opening under the hood). The body is similar, except for front and rear.. so.. Would it be possible to graph the front fenders, hood and the Front Cuda bumper onto a 99? it is either that.. or I buy another Tib.

yes, i know there is a Cuda kit for the 97-99. I don't like that front end. I do, however like the front from the 00-01

well, there is a Cuda 2 for the Gen][ ..

Well, one reason I want that is because of the 'smile'.. that and so I can turn it into a type of a RAM air. The schematics I have here look sound, but then again. Then again, everything looks good on paper.

yeah it is very easy to do a conversion for your car.. change the hood,fenders and bumber.. thats it.. but very costly if you dont like your own front end...

You shouldn't have to change the fenders.
