Once you do front bumper you need headlights and once you do headlights you need hood and once you do hood you need fenders and pretty soon you drive a grand am

that's what I called my coupe... since it had the full grand am interior... I was going to swap the front end, but decided to sell off the parts instead...

good luck if you do it, and can find a grand am in the same colour as your alero... unless you are going to paint the whole thing anyways... have fun!!

I don't think anyone has documented that around here. Nor has it been done the other way around to the best of my knowledge. You would have to get the ebay lights for sure if you did this since Grand Am's have 9007 bulbs instead of a 9006/5 setup. The other thing, which has already been covered is that it's a whole nose swap. You can get the side moldings/cladding and the rear bumper if you want, just know that you'll have 2 license plate mounts.

rear bumper of a grand am doesn't work without fabrication on the alero... where it curves for the tails is different and I believe the trunk mount mould is different as well...

Does it really? I remember SPC trying to sell me the alero body kit and told me that the bumper would fit right on.

if you look at these pictures you can see the obvious differences between the 2...

Yeah, I see it now. I never payed too much attention to the rear end of the Alero. I always thought the tails were different but not the bumpers other than the cutout.

If you were to use an 03-05 front end the bumper is the same design as the alero without all the ribs... unless you're tossing a body kit on it lol...
