Would i have to change my hood. I know the fenders are the same, but i have an aftermarket hood and i dont want to have to buy another one. I have the blitz front, but it sits about an inch lower than the rest of my kit and i am going to be baggin my car at the end of the summer so i need it all to be level, i have the front from the same kit, but its for an 03.
How much different are the hoods, mine is fiberglass, so would it be a relatively small amount of modification to make it work.
P.S. I know i will need to change the headlights, but i like the 03+ lights better anyway.
you'd be better off getting a new hood rather than trying to modify your current hood. for the swap, you'll need a hood, bumper and headlights. also, you will need to convert your headlights from 2 bulbs to 1 bulb, and remove the corner light bracket from the fender (since you won't need it anymore and it will be in the way).

haha, i think you meant ditto...
so the hoods are that far off? I really dont have the money to buy another ram air hood, and i dont even know if they make the ram air hood for the 03+. Im very confused on what to do right now, because i want my bumpers to be even for when i bag my car, but i want to get my car into the booth within the next month. I want all of my bumpers molded also, so i cant just keep this front and get it all painted and then change it when i get it bagged.

oops sorry about the double post, i thought i hit the stop button before it had a chance to post it.
I could give you a stock '03 bumper to make fit cheap...I'd love to see someone make it work, especially if you kept your current headlights.
Modify the bumper to fit your current setup, its a hell of alot cheaper and cooler to make work the current headlights work with a 2003 bumper.
Do it and it should be worth your while.
Let me know if interested.

I have an 03 rk sport bumper (well i have it for a few more days, im selling it on friday). I dont think a stock 03 bumper would look right with the rest of my kit. Thanks for the offer tho. I will prolly just buy a bumper that matches up better for my year and then sell my blitz front.
