Default Want Charger front on Magnum

FromTV commercials the Dodge Charger front end looks fresh, tight, and streamline. Dodge should put it on the Magnum! Looks great and should have better aerodynamics.

I wonder if would be the same as the 300 swap?? Haven't really taken a close look at the Charger and don't really like the lines on the back end. Looks too much like an Intrepid.

While it's not a fit, like the 300 front end, if ya want it bad enough, any fabrication is possible.
I do see the appeal. It looks angry and mean up front. It's the only part of the charger that looks cool, imo.
I opted to mod my headlights to get the angry look:
This isn't quite the same but then, it didn't cost a grand or two either... it cost me about 10 bucks in paint ans supplies. I have plenty left over to do other mods too so it probably just ran me around 4 bucks...

i'd actualy love the charger front end on my magnum too, it's more agressive looking than our nose, but from all the pictures i've seen the lines simply won't match up, you would probably need some custom modified fenders to make the transition from the charger to the magnum's lines.

Jim Jim,
That would be sweet. Anyone out there in DCland listening? Maybe the 2007 or 2008 Magnum could have the cool front end...

No way...Magnum front end on the Charger is how it should be! I haven't been a fan of the new Charger at all, but I think it would be better with the Magnum front end...IMHO.

I agree with you on the magnum front end. Charge front end favors a Bonnville.[:@]

Hey Grinner are you the one that does the photoshop work. Someone on another forum did a photoshop of a 300 with the magnum front end. It looked sweet. I would love to see a Magnum with the Charger front end.

I have a body shop, so access to part swap info. Just like the 300, changing to a Charger front includes, facia, headlights, fenders, hood, etc.
