Lincoln Aviator front on Ranger?

Was just wondering what it would look like. I would do a photoshop of it but I dont have photoshop on the laptop sadly

I like the Ford Ranger front so I dont think I would change it but just wondering what it would look like. hmmmmm? Work involved? i have seen the Navi front on an old Ranger and it looked like garbage IMO, the body didnt flow too well with a big front end.

Opinions,thoughts?

Yeah the first one is the one I saw. I think its the flat black color that makes me not like it. The red one is not bad at all!

The aviator front wont bolt on correct?

I like the black one's wheels and doors, but looks like he ran out of money...That looks like a ranger bumper and his interior looks worse than mine.

The aviator front is too "rounded" for the "boxy" body of the Ranger... looks horrible IMO. The Sport-trac nose does look decent on that step-side, but I think it would look better on a fleet-side.

Poor poor trucks... slammed to the groun like that.

lol

I personally think its ugly. I hate seeing vehicles with Lincoln Navigator, or whatever, front ends.
