i want to get an svt front and rear bumper for my 01 zx3. will they fit without too much modification, i work at a body shop but i dont have much time on my hands lately.

yeah i am wondering the same thing... are all the backs the same? even for an 05? would an svt rear bolt right on?
i think that for 00-04 it should..but im NOT sure

 

[saagz87]

i think it should too, but i want to know from someone who has tried it or who has seen it before because i haven't

the bolt right on......they have the same body's only different bumpers.

 

[Fl3tCh]

yeah that is what i was thinking, but i didnt know if the bolt pattern was the same

 

[MattZX3]

yep.. its the same body type.. the svt is just better in almost every aspect..lol i was going to do the same thing too.. but i didnt have the money for it. jsut remember, you need to get the bumper, both upper and lower grilles(otherwise they wont match) new foglights.. and the new connectors to hook the fogs up... then you'll need all the paint materials... etc.. it gets costly..

would the back bumper of an SVT fit on an 05?

 

[MattZX3]

an 05 zx3? ummmmm there is a slight possibility.. i dont know for sure... im pretty sure it wont tho... right on the ford site, it says that the bumper only fits 01-04.. but it might..

im sure i've seen on here somewhere that they were saying the rear bumper is still a direct bolt on for the 05+ zx3/5. but the front wont for sure, not without replacing the entire front end.

 

[Fl3tCh]

yeah..i was thinking that it should..but everything that i have found doesnt support what i believe..so i want to make sure, before i buy...
i might be able to talk me friend into letting me barrow his bumper to see if it will fit..but i doubt it, lol

thats when you get a carbon fiber hood... new panels...lol if you got the money.. might as well...lol good luck with the modding saagz
