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.

3.2 on the Left and 2.5 on the Right







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



The 2.5TL hood attaches to the 3.2TL hinges


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


The Latch 2.5TL hood centers up to the 3.2TL latch. But I will use the 2.5TL latch will be used.

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

There are no holes for hydraulic hood hinges so the 2.5 hood support rod is used

The challenges to make it fit.

The bump on the 2.5TL hood and the bump in the 3.2TL engine bay.


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

The space it will leave when closed.


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

It 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.
