Default Does anyone know how to get my firebird to look like this beauty?

My firebird's front is messed up quite a bit so im thinking of doing a front swap with a 98-02 model once i get the cash since im in school. But as I was browsing around different firebirds I found this beauty.

Anyone know if this is possible like if there is some kit?

FYI, that's an RC car.
The body pieces you need are from a trans am.

Funny thing is, (other than the RC car) you ask for how to change your car, without letting anyone know what car you have...

We know its a firebird, but what year?

lmao hahaha yah I deserve the triple face palm straight up. I got a 95 firebird with a messed up front and thanks to this forum and the numurous threads on doing front swaps I have been able to figure out how to fix it up. Anyways thanks guys for helping me out just one more question, did this guy http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c1...wingswest2.jpg do something to the front of his firebird's wings west kit. Cause it seems a bit different then the rests, like comapred to the usual one. For example compared to this one http://www.cardomain.com/ride/223547...ntiac-firebird. They are the same kit but the part under the front bumper seems different.

Well I found the forum on it http://www.fullthrottlev6.com/forums...bird-body-kits
the person said that the front lip is angled and some say it is put high up into the bumper, just wondering how is this done and what does he mean exactly by angled. As in he got the kit and customized it? Thanks.

He might have just mounted it a little different. Higher in the back, giving it that raked look.

Ahh ic so when he got the kit he simply put the front lip higher? Is the front lip bolted on or do I need some special tools for it?

i personally like the look of the 93-97 birds...they look awesome just with the WS6 hood (and of course stance/wheels)

So now i read some more and it turns out it is bolted on. So how would I bolt it higher? Like how would it fit. Would I need to angle it in a certain position to make it fit? Thanks
