    please tell me your name applies to this post???


    1) there is no way it'd flow w/ the car, 8G is angles, 7G is curves,

    2) it'd take a bit of $$$$ to get it done, a lot of "cutting," bondo, fiberglass, recreating mounts, etc...

    3) well, if you have teh $$$ and time...... go for it.

    was a turboed purple bright 7g, with an 8g front clip, and lambo doors. It also had these crazy staggard fitment rims, with a 2-3 inch lip. It was amazing it looked crazy

    Yeah I seen that blue one, it's actually pretty nice.

    2G headlights on a 7G? PLEASE find that picture...

    If there's a way to make that work, I'll buy a set tomorrow.

    This has been discussed a couple of times before. Here is my post from a while back about this conversion.

    It also has the blue 7g/8g that you guys were talking about.
