Default Kit for Front To make Look Like Concept

I was reading people talking about how they love the front end better on the concept. Just wondering if someone may build a mold to make it look like the concept. I doubt this currently exists.

Doesn't currently exist...

If you want to dish out the money to make the mold then go for it...

I know it's somewhat split as to who prefers the concept v. the production version of the front end..

personally I think there are parts of both that should have been kept and thrown out...

Agreed. It would be a cool challenge though.

Anybody up for it?

I'd settle for a replacement grill that had a single, heavy, vertical center post to accent the body line, and maybe some vertical accents to match the hood strakes, instead of that dang horizontal-vents mini-van grill...

Good Morning!

I am in Canada and could possibly build such. But I would need a good drawing or Picture of what you have in mind. However I would only build one.

can you give us a ballpark quote for this? It should be similar to any other front fascia you have done before in procedure and price...

Cash is king, and keeping the cost down is a close second.

Any reason you would only build one? Maybe as a prototype to get bugs worked out, but if you want to keep costs down, you will spread them over several units and hopefully a group buy

If they look good, that is LOL

it's going to cost a lot of money...can' imagin how much..... you will need new hood, side panels, front bumper and headlights..... i am guessing over $5000 easy..not worth it at all. and even after getting one, you have to make sure it's going to fit good....
