Is there any way to make the headlights look more like an '05 rather than wrapping around the corners of the front. One issue would be the turn signals...I doubt they could go under the lights due to wiring and placement problems. But if there were anyway to get front-only headlights, that would be awesome. I don't like the wrap-around headlight look. Please respond if you have an answer...or if you do not understand what I am asking, which is pretty understandable heh...

Replace the grille with a mach 1 grille delete; put a chin spoiler on it; call it a day.
If you want to go all out, buy a mach 1 hood and mach 1 shaker scoop (only $700 for the kit... much less than any other major custom-mod you could do!)
Personally, the Mach1's are very agressive-looking. Go for that look, and the compliments will come rushing in!

I was thinking I wanted the front end to look more or less like new, modern version of this classic...I would assume this would not cause a wiring problem for the turn signals since they would be more or less in the same area...my only concern would be doing the body work...Which again makes me wonder, would I be able to/have to do a fender replacement?

The wiring would be the least of your concerns. You would also need a custom fabricated hood, fenders, and front fascia. I'm not saying it couldn't be done, but I don't think anyone makes the parts for it.

Where you thinking of something like this picture? I was thinking of either welding in new metal or use vinal to cover the side markers. JMS Products also has a car that had custom front lamps on it (Below)
,
maybe try and talk to them.

The other pic is a photoshop I did to blend the 99 and 05 styling.I actually had JMS make a set of C-pillars like the 05(haven't installed them yet)

Is that just a chop with an 05 front end?

Would it be possible to fashion the 05 front end for an SN95?

Why not just buy an 05? That white one looks hideous. The grey one is a nice chop though and would be somewhat doable with vinyl.

Can't buy an 05 for two reasons...one is my dad wants a SE next year for himself and will not buy me a brand new car, and also that it is the first year and my dad wants to wait 'til they work the kinks out. But could you make an 05 front end for an SN95.
