It is possible to change the front over but don't expect it to be cheap. XR fronts are very desirable, and will be nearly impossible to find at the wreckers. Wherever you find one, it will be expensive. A cheaper alternative is the aftermarket twinlight option, but it doesn't look as good as an XR front

the twinlights dont look too bad. i was thinking of getting these and moulding them to an EA grille. it'd be different and look pretty tough.
