front end conversion...

hey guys,
just got a tl from insurance auction. she cost me $1600! front end was a little messed up but got it all fixed up now. the only thing is the front end looks kinda poor on these older 99 models... now my question is, what parts do i need to convert the 99 to look like this :

hood, bumper, grille, lights, and your going to have to work out some of the mounting points for the lights, i din't believe they line up... just make sure you check with your insurance company to see if they will insurance a salvaged vehicle. i know NJ Manufactuers will not...

Unfortunately the pictures no longer appear.

The picture you used came from this post:
