everything bolts up fine except the bumper/grill..you can do it the difficult way and have them swap the radiator supports or you can just drill some new holes for the grill and then the bumper/grill will fit fine..goodluck..

I dont think you should pay a shop to do the conversion. All you have to do is cut a slit on the bumper where the outer self tapping screws for the grill are located. Everything else will slide in.
