well first off... what year do you want? 04-05 or 06-07? generally you'll need

-fenders
-bumper
-hood
-headlight
-radiator support
and the necessary brackets for the bumper.

yea those parts. but im not 100% sure about the headlight area though. look for a picture of an 04-05 to see if the headlight mounting points are different.
