03 4runner hood question....

[03 Limited]

Does anyone know for a fact if the 2003-2005 hood is the same as the 2006-2009 models? I see many aftermarket catalogs and ebay list them as being the same but i was always under the impression they were not the same because of the grille assy were larger and the headlamp corner cut out on the corner towards the ends on 06+ ones.

Pretty sure they're different, since the headlights are different

I believe its' only the bottom part of the headlights that are different, you just need the extra trim piece and all the hoods are the same.

Good point, I forgot the difference was on the bottom, I was thinking of the bumper

So you think the new Grille will fit the 03?

You know this for sure???? I did a quick fit yesterday morning, Everything lines up and bolts on perfect, It looks like it will need a little tweaking at the bottom...
