Default conversion

has anyone done a front end conversion from a 96-96 elantra to a tiburon(years with almost identical headlights) or to a 99-00 elantra? i know you would have to get everythign from the doors forward but how hard would it be and how do you think it would look?

The front end and front quarter panels would probably not hard, just fabricating brakets to bolt on in the right position. You would need some pretty good fiberglass skills to make up the difference in sizes too. Converstion to a whole new door. You might as well forget that dude. unless you know somebody that does really good custom work.

Go studt the cars together and you will see why nobody has done it.

None of the body panels on the car match up so it woult take some mad skills to make it look good.
