    1 get rid of the small crease in the pass side fender
    2 update to factory blacked out headlights

    thanks

    Yes you can. You need the grill and two fenders and bumper. The hood and core support are all the same. I'm doing the same thing, already have the grill and fenders and going to make a new bumper. Got new primered fenders off ebay for $150 each and got the grill as a new take off for $50. Waiting on getting the fenders painted. Watching a few headlight setups on ebay right now... I'll be doing an article on the main page once I do it.

    The bumper may work but the new ones don't have to the two little recessed half circles under each headlight, they are just straight across. They may still fit, just have a gap there.

    You don't have to change the bumper its the same .The bumper skin on top is different.So just get a 06 bumper cover.
