it sounds like you've got it. cut the rear to fit the type-s rear.

no, you have to buy new bumper, new headlights and some other little things.

yes, the type-s lip is a different shape than the base model. to successfully do it, you would have to buy new type-s front bumper, type-s head lights and some other misc. things

there are tons of threads on this conversion.
they even list the parts and price them.
IIRC, for a full type-s conversion its like 1200-2000.

nope because its smaller, its not going to fit. The 07-08 grille is larger than 04-06

I have a 04 TL front bumper and planning to purchase Type-S headlights. Will the Type-S headlights fit with my 04 front bumper without any modification? Thanks.
