You don't have to change the hood but you will have to change the header panel, headlights and corners.

Correct. You will need new header panel, headlights, corners. Hood and bumper can stay.

Wasn't there a guy who modified a honey comb to fit into a 98 grille? Also welcome to RF I'm in Gresham also.

^^ Yeah if you cut off the covers on the bottom you can mount it up to a 98-00 header panel.

The owner of that truck made it using the honeycomb section from a 2001-2003 Ranger Edge/4x4.
