what parts are needed to convert my 99 s10 to this front end from the lil shops truck? headlights bumper and grille? are my fenders and hood the same?

Are those just stock sonoma grille lights and bumper?

AbOvEone · 12-14-2008, 08:22 PM

^ that looks like an envoy front on that not a sonoma

02s10350 · 12-14-2008, 09:27 PM

no thats a sonoma/jimmy with fogs

DISFIGUREDS10 · 12-14-2008, 10:49 PM

i think thats a custom grille insert too, the red trailblazer swap they did looked like the same stuff.

Redsdime · 12-14-2008, 11:06 PM

its just a sonoma front painted and smoothened and the of course grille insert

ridinlow99 · 12-15-2008, 12:01 AM

so thats just a sonoma grille headlights and bumper right? no special parts besides grille insert. it looks like it sticks out more than a regualr sonoma grille?

im doing this swap on the truck in my avatar will the hood and fenders be the same?

Redsdime · 12-15-2008, 01:56 AM

yes and if your smoothing the cover use a very fine grit so you dont have sand marks

ridinlow99 · 12-15-2008, 03:59 AM

leadsled2020 · 01-30-2009, 10:33 PM

Not going to lie, i liked it before your conversion..... that sucks, are the headlights ok?

leadsled2020 · 01-31-2009, 02:12 AM

headlights are good, it will come back with a few new parts, i will replace the bumper with one from an Isuzu Hombre and a Cervinis SS hood will go on...... now I can justify buying them......

and Travy, I would love it if you beat the F*ck out of that tree for me.....lol
and yes the truck looks sad....lol

twistedxknights · 01-31-2009, 04:12 AM

I say put a 98+ front bumper on it with the non ls valence..

layinbody31 · 01-31-2009, 01:33 PM

is it totalled? any frame damage? looks like there would be... that was a hard hit

leadsled2020 · 02-01-2009, 01:19 AM

it was only 30 mph...... not totaled..... and I hope no frame damage....

Times 2 maybe???

Looks like the tree kicked the shit outta that thing, esp. for onyl 30 mph.

leadsled2020 · 02-01-2009, 02:01 AM

I was less than a block from my house.....in my neighborhood..... right after the local schools let out and kids were around....... no speeding....... just a random patch of ice and a well placed tree...

1offs10 · 02-08-2009, 06:01 PM

anyone got more pics of a rover front end other then the blue one? or more pice of the blue one?

towb3 · 02-14-2009, 11:51 PM

Haha. holy sh!t. I didn't think anybody would take my trailblazer front end instructions from a while back. lol. You make it out with out too many bumps and bruises?

greencactus3 · 02-27-2009, 12:38 PM

thats the irony.... it was me who was laughing at it with you too

and i kinda like the look of that Dodge

towb3 · 03-02-2009, 11:45 PM

Ha. I agree. The bedsides just aren't working with the front. Do something with that and it would look tits.

77 mustang grille on first gen

V8Blaze · 04-15-2009, 03:07 PM

found this one under show coverage from spring fling, i think its awesome

EDIT: i added it attached, you used to not be able to see links from hotridesmag.com unless you were signed in

16years&blazin · 04-15-2009, 03:36 PM

^ That looks badass, but might be a different story once the hood and bumper is on it

V8Blaze · 04-15-2009, 07:42 PM

yea it looks awesome, the metal work looks great too. Ill get the engien shot of it later, its got a full custom frame and control arms. Usually the bumper is what kills front end swaps IMO.
