has anyone ever seen a 4th gen lude with a 5th gen front end? i have a 92 and id like to put the newer lights on it. if i get the fenders hood bumper and lights will it be easy to do it?

 

no but if seen a 5th with 4th gen lights. its all going to be a lot of custom work and money. it can be done just not easily

 

wow.......just wow

obviously the question of ease is a very naive one for obvious reasons

 

y would u wanna ruin a 4th gen like that??

 

ahahaha 5th gens are sexier... . Anyway... yea it would be some custom work. People think its hard to do headlight conversion but it really isnt if the lights are of similar shape. See... whats gunna happen is; 5th gen lights are taller and would prob have to sit lower on a 4th gen to match with the hood. Then the custom work would just be molding. However, you will most likely end up having to buy a hood, fenders, lights etc. The snout of the 5th gen is longer too so the cutout for the wheel well might be off. Its just too much custom work man. Keep the 4th gen lights.

 

or buy a 5th gen

 

well my buddy had a del sol with a 98 teg front end, so im sure if i flowed him enough cash and the parts it will be done

 

Well go for it man, I dont blame u for loving the 5th gen. front end.

 

JUst go buy a ford fusion......cause thats what its gonna look like.....haha

shave it off

 

why would you ever consider doing something like that the 4th gen is a way better car like im thinking of doing a RHD conversion... that is reasonable but a front end conversion, seriously why dont u just put ford emblems on it and call it a ford fusion

Snorkels ftl!

 

why are 90% of people on honda-tech ******s...if i want to do something dont knock it unless its something extremely gay...keep your gay *** opinions to yourself, i didnt ask if u liked the idea, i asked for help

 

Well i guess im not a ******, cuz im going to tell you to do it. Go ahead mess up your 4th gen we didnt buy it. If you got the brains then you will get it done good. Now if you came here to ask us step by step I dont think your going to get ansewerd.

 

thank you. and no im not gonna ask anyone step by step i was just seeing if anyone had seen it done

 

I have not seen it done, thats to ansewer your Q from me.

 

I'm sure no one meant any harm...
it's just a question of preference
anyway
good luck on your Ford fusion concept...
all u need now is a V6 swap!
and u'll only be a couple years late

 

Is this what you want!
Spend all that money on looks! just dumb!

 

ooo man.... this crack me up. Never knew how much a ford fussion look like the front end 5th lude and the *** of the 4th...


Good ****

 

sorry but i think the front end of the 5th is one of the uglier front ends i've ever seen...don't get pissy with me anyone just my opinion lol

 

ya it can be done.. but I wouldnt do it.. my friend has a teg with a lexus IS front end, and it looks crazy but come on! just buy a car that you like stock!
and you will probably stay with the fourth gen, so with that in mind, get the jdms .


mike.

Dude get some knowledge. The WHOLE front end will have to be custom fitted, headlights, front bumper, front quarter panels, the mount points for the bumper and quarter panels will all be custom. There ain't no car same series or not where you can just swap "similar" headlights and "maybe" a hood and thing it's going to work. It will all be custom.
