Default 2010 front end on an 07?

I was wondering if anyone's thought of how the new front ends would look on the 05-09s? Is it possible? Would it look good? I've been wanting to do the GT500 conversion but I thought this might be another option if it was possible and the body lines matched up.

unfortunately i don't believe an actual '10 to '07 conversion isn't possible. i hate to burst your bubble, but every body panel is different on the '10s; so, you'd have to replace the front quarter panels (especially these), hood probably, etc. in addition to the fascia.

overall, it'd be better to just buy a 2010 if you want that look. of course, a body kit might be available in the future; there is a 05+ conversion for 99-04

Well I assumed it would be everything from fenders, hood, front fascia, lights. I was just wondering if the lines would match up and if it would just bolt on to the frame.

I don't know about the front end but I would sure like to have those hips on the rear quarters!

yeah I would love those hips as well, if I could get those without having to have that rear end...

Even if you did the front fenders, and they fit, they would not match the rear fenders.

Well buying a new car is an option, but I would rather accomplish the goal without having to completely start a new car note.

I'd be more interested on a 2010 Hood fitting on a 2005-2009.
