Both of you would need new rad supports - keep in mind that's not a bolt-on piece. You'll also need to think about things like adapting lighting wiring on both sides, etc.
Good luck!

No, I do like my front end. I also like the bugeye front end. I rocked the 04 Sti back then, now the 06 front end Sti...just though it would be a nice experiment (lol kinda like doing a full sti swap on a bugeye)
