IDK if he wants a photoshop done, but judging by what he said, I assume he just put the thread in the wrong section.
Would anyone know what I would need to do to convert my 98' front end to be able to accept a 08' bumper?
Everything from the frame forward. Meaning, bumper w/ integraded brackets, and the bumper cover, as well as a valence. It's a straight up bolt-on deal. all 98+ bumpers are interchangeable on 98+ trucks. All you need is the bumper assembly to change the bumper and nothing else.
If you want the '08 (04+) style front end(grille and such), you'd need a header panel, headlights, hood, grille, and other associated little pieces like j-nuts and screws.
