Fit to Yaris Front End Conversion?

Well i love my GE but I feel that the front end is lacking pinash, so to jazz it up a bit (pun intended) I was considering putting on a Yaris front end, how much do you think this would cost me? Also would i rub my 14x5 +37 wheels? Btw i'm lowered on stock suspension

It will most likely cost you your reputation. If you really want to do it, picking from a totaled Yaris that was hit from behind would be the cheapest route for sure. Getting all the new parts would be money, plus the custom work to make them fit, plus paint, electrical hookup, etc. My guess is anywhere from a couple hundred if you go the totaled route and you do the figuring out and body work yourself, up to the many, many thousands if you go new parts and professional shop help. Better to just buy a Yaris.

Why would you do this to the FIT... it would truly be a hamster with a Yaris frontend!

With Photoshop, it should cost you only a couple of hours.
