I believe I am going the 03 bodykit bumber due to molding is a little easier and like Freeway said mold it one piece and it will look sharp, I am going to just splurge and buy the full 6 pc kit "IF" the front looks good I may fab the whole kit on the 00 and take it from there

i already had that hood on my list...dont know how that bumper will fit on EB

Here you go Ford Expedition/F150 Carbon Fiber Hoods

I would imagine you need the newer core support too. Are you going to replace the bumper pads? I have read you need to cut the frame on yours to get the newer style pad to fit.

To be honest not sure, My idea is to cut and remold, like I did for my friends 240sx to Skyline conversion. Only true issue was headlights, that required a little finess.. Agreed if I do the cut and remolding it may not have the true 03 look from factory but it will still have the lines and a 03 look. But i'll have to wait and get my hands on the kit and see what I can and can not do. I'm not going to start tearing it down till I see the parts.

Also check craigslist people always have wrecked or junked expy's on there.. I have my other play toy to drive while I attempt this, not the most practical but hey it'll work
