Question Replacement bumper?????

Does anyone know if a replacement bumper/grill guard for a '03-'05 will fit on a '08? Thanks

A full bumper replacement will not work. The headlights are different across the bottom.

A buddy of mine put one on his, it fits but looks retarted. The top of the bumper is cut out to fit the 'bubles' of the lower part of the 05ish headlight, and the part around the headlight doesnt match up worth a darn. It works, but looks like crap.

When I tried to make fun of him for it he replied " The deer I hit last tuesday didnt care how goofy it looks".

Mine is a Frontier Gear full replacement. The deck part below the headlight does not contour to the headlights, its flat diamond plate. The only thing I can see looking funny would be the wrap a rounds for the headlight. But as far as bolt up is the frame the same?

My frontier gear on my 07 is just a little different than one on my buddies 05. The mounting brackets and stuff are the same im pretty sure. Ive looked under his and its to close to notice any differences anyway. The way the bars wrap around the lights is just a little different I bet it would look fine though.
