Im wondering if its possible..and by possible meaning not too hard to use a 95-2002 hood on a 2003 cavie? im doing a 2003 cav front swap and i really like the turbosport hood..what has to be modded ect? phil
not gonna work, granted anythign can fit anythign with enough modification but generally speaking its not gonna fit, the body lines in the hood are dirrerent as well as the whole front shaping
if your dead set on that your best bet is taking a turbo sport hood and a fiberglass 03+ oem hood and cuting the wheol scoop area out cuting the cneter out of the 03 + and molding them toegther but even then you still wont have a smoth line down the body line on the center of the hood. It may be possible o cut the front edges off both hoods a couple inches back and then remolding them together but again you will have the body line on the last couple inches and not the rest. Its preaty much a lost cause inless your extrememly talented or you have alot of money to waste
your going from an 03 to an 02? if so, you need to change hood, headlights, install corner lights, and front bumper.
from an 02 to an 03, new hood, headlights, and bumper.
fenders are always the same.
providing you change all of the above parts...it all bolts right up, as easy as can be.

if you wanted to just mod the hood to fit what you have currently, you would need to cut off most of the section between the headlights and slightly glass around the headlights and then find a way to attach the hood latch properly.

read again...... he wants to make an 02 fit on an 03 front end..... not swap everything mod an 02 urbo sport hood to work with the 03+ headlingts/front end
Yup, if you REALLY want the hood your best bet is to just convert to the 2000-2002 lights and get a different front bumper.

^^Yah well i am currently sporting a 99 cavie front..so i could do it..but i like the newer headlight design..its kinda up to date i guess versus the 2002 and down...Im sure with enough whinning they will make a turbosport fr the 2003 up..im sure it would be popular..thanks alot guys..phil
See i took my 03 fire and tryed an 00-02 cavi front swap and i used a 96 front bumper and a hood and it came out horrible so im back to the way it was b4 so just buy the stuff that u need the first time and be patient please =p

dont count on it
im sure you could do it if you rally wanted to, but it'd be a lot of work and prolly not worth it.
