front grill/header panel swap from 97+ to a 90 xj
« on: February 15, 2010, 10:21:26 PM »
Hey guys I was just wondering if anyone knows anything about the front end swaps... Do you need to replace the fenders or can the front peice be mocked up to fit with some new holes being drilled? any info would be sweet, and if you know of any 97+ being parted out... :o
