Well, it does look like a '99 TL front end, but it also looks like a Photochop wagon rear end on there.

Doing the headlights wouldn't be too hard for an expierenced body shop. Not sure about the hood though, you will need to do some measuring and see if it's even close, I think your Accord hood is much smaller than a TL.
