Re: hood and grill match up question
Pics?
For the bumper: the change to 2003 was a tough one, because the fore/aft length of the ends of the bumper (in front of the front wheels) was increased, making it especially sensitive to fit (and in a crash event). I'd add some washers/shims under the bumper bolts to try to kick that tail so that it becomes horizontal. K

Re: hood and grill match up question
Yeah ...after looking more into it ...looks like a hatchet on the mounts far as them welding the news on and stuff might just take it off and start from fresh start ... Thank you for the advice on shims ...going to use washers to adjust what I need too...headlights aren't all straight might need New brakets or mounts ...just more money
