Gle To Se Bumper Conversion????

Hey check it I have a question that hasnt been asked 10 million times..

I have a 96 GLE bumper and I want to convert the GLE bumpers to Se bumpers so I can have fog lights and stuff.

Here are the questions..

1) Can I get away with just the bumper covers?

2) Will there be pre-existing wire there for fog lights even though its a GLE. Same line right?

3) How eazy would it be?

Proph

Why don't you just cut the holes in the GLE bumper yourself ussing a sawsall or something and than add your fog lights....Walla! You now own an SE Maxima...

Very easy to do and you already have prewired fog lights...you can just plug and play!

u should also consider 97-99 front bumper... they look nice with or without fog light. ebay has them for reasonable price...also it's already primered....

just cut off the holes where the fogs would go. and if you have the cold weather package, which you should, then the harness should be there. also look where your headlight stalk is, is there a fog lamp option already on it? and that is all

Walla isn't a word.

The word you're looking for is "voila."

use a dremel to cut the holes they are more precise
