Default 2000 front end change

I am new here to Ford Ranger Forums, I started looking at the site because I want to do a front end change on my 2000 Ranger. Does anyone know if you can put a 2005-2006 front end grille and bumper assembly on a 2000 Ranger?

Yep. You will need a header panel, headlight assy, corner lamps, grill shell, grill insert, and if memory serves, a hood. You will also have to get the misc hardware for it. Use the search button at the top-right of the screen and type front end conversion.

Wish I would have seen that you could do this a while back. Hit a tree stump over winter and just replaced the bumper, grill, valance, and fogs.

I mashed my front end in feb and the body shop did it all for me. $500 for parts, paint, and install.

I replaced it all myself think it came out to about 500$ but I had to buy a radiator also.. I would of much rather had the newer style though!

If you ever decide to redo it, I'd be happy to help.
