The Official 01-03 To 04-06 Conversion Facelift And Rear Pics Inside

[Junnie]

Finally I get around to doin this. Been wanting to post pics up for awhile. I did the conversion pics and everything! BIG Thanks to GATO and vietdeluxx for the help...also my dad was there to participate a bit. Using his shop as well....Anyways its been a long journey....., I know the LS430 thread needed some new hype...... Enjoy

I know you guys are probably not a big fan of VIP on this forum...but wanted to share...

Oh.....and here to confirm the parts needed:

Front:

Hood (also the grille that comes w/ it)

Fenders

Headlights

Front Bumper (w/ fogs)

Headlight Support from 04-06

Rear:

Trunk (trunk bar if it didn't come w/ it)(emblems which I believe are a little diff)

All 4 piece tailights

***and you really don't need the rear bumper*** But it looks better IMO, but of course in my pics I skipped it and got a kit...

Let the pics begin:

Love the 04-05 always hated the 01-03 front end.

Nice to see it was documented ,what was the cost break down and time involved?

None....I like the color of my wood grain...its that dark cherry look which didn't come w/ the 04-06 options

Well I can say I got a very good deal for it.....very good deal... It was a lot of work.....but worth it to me.
