02-03 front conversion to 04+ front

I have a 02 wrx and i'm not a big fan of the buglights and im really falling for the new front end, i think the 04 and the 05 looks awesome. So the question is can a 02 or a 03 WRX front end conver to 04+ front end????.

yeah you can... bumper, hood, fenders, and headlights. hope you have a color that came in both years so you dont have to repaint too.

I think you should sell your bugeye to a bugeye fan and buy a 04.

i have a sedan i wouldn't selling it n getting a 04+ since that guy spent 5G on the conversion, thats a bit too much. or i can go to junkyard to see of they have any penders n bumbers n stuff. shouldn['t that cut down on the cost?

you just need someone to trade with you... thats your most cost effective solution. junkyard parts arent 'cheap' but they are more cost effective than buying new.

i still haven't forgiven Subaru for stabbing the bugeyed boys in the back.

if you don't like the look, buy something else, and see you in the rearview.
