Default b6 front end on a b5? is it possible?

Jus like it says......will a b6 front end button up on a b5? From front door jams/fender jams forward. Im jus a fan on the more squared off headlights and flared *** fenders. Jus like the b5 tails more haha. So i had an idea on getting the best of both worlds. Any ideas or anything, id greatly appriciate the feedback. Thnx

It definitely won't "button up", but like redline said, anything is possible given enough time and money. There was a thread here a long time ago of a guy who did a B7 front end swap and widebody conversion on a B5, but sold it before he finished. Looked decent but I'm personally very fond of the way the B5 looks from the factory.

you're nice. I thought it looked like hell. B5s are still the best looking imo.

Well, I just meant that the quality of the work was high. He did it properly with metal work and welding, not just slopping 100lbs of bondo on everything. Definitely not my style either, I think it ruined the lines of the car.
