I love the mk3 supras but not a fan of the flip up lights so I had an idea. How hard will it be to put a mk4 front cap on a mk3 I think it would look beast. Has anyone seen or heard of this being done? If so are there any tips or pics you can post. I found a front cap for a mk4 for about 2gs and was just wandering if it was an easy swap
Mk3 with mk4 front cap???

Ok well I mean I'm good with body work I'm sure I could do it have you heard of anyone doing this?
Don't do it. It won't look right at all.
You don't even see the pop ups when there down.
But may I suggest the soarer front end.

Looks better than original how hard is that conversion and how hard would it be to find the parts I know nothing about a soarer. If it's easier I might go this route but I love the way the one looks In the pic I posted with the mk4 cap
Sounds like you have made your mind up to do it, go ahead prove us all wrong and that it doesn't look like total and utter crap and it's not ruining the classic lines of a Mk3...Pikkonslaw;1987718 said:
If you want to do it, do it. It is your car, and if it's something that you would like well who are we to stop you. I have had some cars with some weird s^&t done to it and I didn't care what people thought because it was my car.
This is the first thing I thought of when I read that.

I would also advise against it. If you want the mk4 body save your money and buy a mk4.

Apparently, NO ONE here thinks that putting a MkIV front end on a MkIII is a good idea, mainly I suppose, because the two cars has very different/ conflicting design strategies.
BUT, as already mentioned, do what you want to do, it's your car.
As already mentioned, it will require heavy metal work and some fabrication.
As already mentioned it will be difficult.
As already shown, it has been done before.
So at this point in the thread, every question you asked has been answered. Good luck with your build, and be sure to post progress pictures.

My main reason of this post I guess was to get tips from someone who had already done it but apparently it's a crazy idea
Only maybe 1 or 2 people tops who have done it. And they are not on here. It's not something people want to hack up there car for.
We'll I appreciate all the advice or well opinions really ha if I decide to go through with it I will post pics
Hellz yeah! Do that shit, son! Haters gonna hate. Don't let anyone steer you away from your dream. Sawzall , gallon of body filler, and some wire connectors and DONE! Start ASAP, and post pics of progress immediately. You just might start a revolution here. We can all use some good ideas to refresh and update the old style of our cars.
