Will a 2.5 TL hood fit on my 3.2 TL ?

I doubt it. Even if you could get it on, there would be no way to latch it down since the grill area is different.

Nope. 3.2 TL is a larger car.

60100-SW5-000ZZ is the 2.5TL and 60100-SZ5-010ZZ is the 3.2 TL. They are even different shapes.

Well... Challenge accepted
 
I want my Mugen stuff to fit, but it will not fit on a 3.2TL. So, I will have the 2.5TL hood and bumper to fit my 3.2TL.

The challenges to make it fit.
 
https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/acurazi...f4122bfe08.jpgThe bump on the 2.5TL hood and the bump in the 3.2TL engine bay.

https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/acurazi...c3a30d0a77.jpgThe space it will leave when closed.


+++++++++++++++++

https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/acurazi...910bede49b.jpgIt lines up well, but there is a small gap and a couple of mm off for the head light space

Also the radiator support and the bumper support is different. needs a little welding work.
