    shape of the z doesn't even compare to the square corolla. i don't think it will look good at all.

    Well I would use the headlights off the Mazda 6 but if you want you can Photoshop just the 350z front end that would be sweet

    or you can just buy the car instead of making your COROLLA look like something its not. if you are trying anything at all, just go for the subie front end.

    I'm not trying to make it look like a z the body lines are the same just gives it a more aggresive look I just want to change the look a little and I know its going to be work but its also going to be one of a kind and in my opinion look good too... I guess we will see lol

    Ive seen some 7th gens with the bottom portion of the 8th gen bumper molded to the 7th gen one to add oem style fogs. Ive seen 8th gen front ends on 7th gen wagons.. Why would you want to mold a 350z front end to a corolla?? I would look sooo hacked together and cheap imo. Prove me wrong please id like to see this done. But honestly I think it would be as stupid as me converting my prizm front end to a corolla one. It does nothing for the car at all.

    Well I don't think your mod was stupid (Kryptic) I think it looks good, better than the Chevy front end.

    Im not trying to bash like most people on here.. but without A LOT of money or experience it wont happen. We have a car show around here once a year where all the ricers meet up and there is a mid 90's integra that was completely converted into a porsche. That thing is so ugly bc the porsche is like a foot wider than the integra so the front end just looks "fat" if that makes any sense. IMO do something to your car that you can enjoy like boost or suspension.

    That reminds me of the Cali Mod that was cool in the early 2000s, where they put the front headlights from another Acura, I think it was a CL? Don't remember, but anyway, they would put those on the front of an Integra, let me see if I can find one.

    Look at the distance between the headlights and the front wheel, then compare that to the distance from the front wheel to the front of the door. Way too much overhang on the front.

    lol wow i didnt know that actually made a "review" site. yes that thing is hideous and is still for sale today. probably lost a few ponies by the 80 gallons of bondo holding it together.. Like I said dude im not trying to bash your idea of a z front end on a corolla... but it is 2011 and even the cars in the new fast and furious movies dont look like that anymore.
