Where can I find this for sale?

I really love the Astro front end on the xB. My two favorite cars of all time are Astro Van and xB, I would really enjoy having this kit.

i think that might be a custom job. if you really wanted that front end conversion done, i would look for a good place that can do it for you, although it would probably cost a lot of cashola.

nope that is not a custom job. its the snowy heron kit. according to the site if you add up all the prices for all the pieces it comes out to $1250 . however that does not include any import fees and shipping charges. I am not sure if you actually need all of the pieces or not.

Thats one of the most popular JDM aftermarket conversions. I dont think Ive ever seen it done here in the US. Ive been waiting for somebody to do it cause I think its totally amazing!

Well I will make it my mission to find away to get this kit on my xB. I will have to hold out on bags I guess. But that is cool with me.

Keep in mind there may be some fitment issues, since the xB isn't identical to the bB.

It would be really funny to put a Chevy logo on that - folks'd be so confused.

Ive seen that conversion/kit with the Chevy badging. For some reason I cant find anymore pics right now.

As far as fitment goes you'll have to remove the front crash bar to make the 1st gen bB bumper fit our xBs. Not really a big deal. Its just 4 bolts to pull off. Shouldnt be other issues at all....

My problem is finding away to order this, with the site being in japanese, I wouldnt know how contact them. Whats the best way to order from a japan based company. I kinda need to know so when I get my Previa, I can order my kit too.

My input is that I wouldn't like it on my own car....not my style. But it is always awsome to have custom work done.

Good luck.
