If it were that simple, a lot of us would've done the swap already. But the fenders are different, the hood, the grill, valence panels, etc., so essentially, the entire front end needs to swap over. Though it's all bolt-on stuff, it does take time.

Me ... for my 245, I feel like I'll prolly end up fabricating some adapter plates to use some other make's headlight setup and getting some trim pieces made to fill in the space.
