Frontend swap on 986

[jwilson95]

Looks like a 986 to me by the size of the side intake

If you look closely, the headlights are from a 987.

I just got a call from Frank at LA Porsche Dismantler, he told me that the 987 frontend is a bolt-on deal on the 986. Frontend meaning fenders, lights, hood, bumper, and etc. Can someone confirm?

im sure if he said it it must be true, they know a thing or 2 about porsches

I've been looking into this conversion as well. I was going to put it on my buddies car.

I am almost 100% sure its just bolt on with a few exceptions of a few screws, bolts, brackets. Just like my turbo front end.

Looks hot hence it's a complete conversion of the 996... However I'm not feeling it, 996 frontend on a boxster? That's like taking a 328i and converting it to an M3.
just IMHO.
