Here we go guys, some pics of my front 08+ conversion mod, plus info.




Besides the front bumper cover, headlights, grille and air dam, most parts like screws and such can be reuse from your 05-07. The diagram below shows what additional parts you will need to make this conversion.

You also need # 3, part # 04806226AA, 6 of them
Also the actual front bumper part # is 68033744AB


Numbers 10, 15 and 24 you don't really need. But I would recommend them for a tight fit. ;) Number 25 is the same hardware that attaches the 05-07 air dam to the bumper, but I think you will need an extra one. Im not sure because I've got all of those plastic parts new. Any questions, feel free to PM me. :thumbsup:





It wasn't as expensive I thought it would be... Ebay, is definitely your friend!
Very easy to do, anyone with a garage can do it without breaking a sweat. I really love the 08+ look and of course, those awesome OEM HID headlights. :D

BTW, I wanna thank Scott for the info on the HIDs and Mario for fixing a lousy paint job.

JG ROCKS!!! :thumbsup:
Cheers

Hi there, I'm new here. I just bought a 2005 WK which had a small accident to the front, so I need to change drivers light, grill and a bumper, so I'm thinking about this conversion as well. I just have a two questions:

1. can someone post the list of parts for Limited / Overland model, pls? The list (diagram) mentioned is not available anymore.
2. I bought an European version. Do you know guys, if there are any difference between US and EU models? I think there are some differences at headlights, but as far as I know the difference should be just at point of certification.

Sorry for my english

Thank you
Robin
