Re: Will a SRX front end fit on CTS?

if you do manage to get it on there im sure the lines wont all match up...it will probably look funny. if its the headlights and grill you like your best bet is probably to just put on a v bumper or some sort of aftermarket bodykit with a sports grill and then see if you can somehow make those headlights fit. i really dont know if it is worth it tho.
remember this is a taller vehicle so the pannels will be bigger top to bottom (or at least should be)
is this the front end you are talking about?

someone correct me if im wrong. but this isnt gonna be as simple as puttin a escalade front on a avilanche.

Re: Will a SRX front end fit on CTS?

Well, since dubs make a CTS look like a 4x4, the natural progression would be to turn it into an SUV. Have at it...

Re: Will a SRX front end fit on CTS?

Closest youre going to get is a sport grill with V bumper. Looks better like this IMHO.

Re: Will a SRX front end fit on CTS?

agreed...ctsv bumper with sport grill like nick has is the cheapest and easyestthing you can do...or look for a aftermarket front end, i wouldnt bother changing the headlights...i just dont think its worth it. but by all means grab a front clip off a rear ended and written off srx and givver a try...ide love to see it.

btw ..i like yer cts nick...wanta donate yer rims to the perl CTS fund ? lol

Re: Will a SRX front end fit on CTS?

shit, take a swing at it, nothings impossible. one of the SWIFT CTS guys fabricated a 2008 CTS front end onto a 1st generation CTS.

its not too difficult from the look of the pictures..
http://www.trustmymechanic.com/auto-...xfrontview.jpg
http://www.lasplash.com/uploads/1/ca...plash2_001.jpg

not sure if the wheel well/fenders will come out right or if they'll need some custom work or not... but it looks doable, and its by no means impossible.

(i personally like this SRX bumper more than the standard SRX bumper cover, but again, its up to you & your taste; http://images.motortrend.com/feature..._side_view.jpg )

Re: Will a SRX front end fit on CTS?

for the same reason put 20s or different grills or tint on their cars... because they want to.

its not my style, but someone likes it. and if they like, might as well go for it.
