Default Thinking of converting my gt to an lx

ok guys i love the look of the lx's because the body flow is alot more cleaner than the gt. and i absolutely love how the tailpipes are on the lx's. anyways, i was thinking of converting my gt vert to an lx. my dad has an account with a body parts vendor and can get these thigns dirt cheap! we got a fender, bumper and grill for a 2002 f150 for 110 bucks! i was suprised how cheap it was. The company says that they carry all domestic body parts and etc. what do you guys think about the idea?

If you dont do an LX conversion, atleast put a Cobra rear bumper on it, makes all the difference in the world IMO. Im diong that to my 93. Might go with the Cobra side skirts too.

i agree with 7upedition, verts and notches have to be lx. hatch looks good either way but better as a gt. im converting my hatch to gt. they didnt even make notch gt's i dont believe.

I like notches ALOT BUT they have to be clean. If they are not clean they dont look that good IMO.
