Need help converting 4x2 to 4x4 grill

Does anyone know of a sight or post that can help me with all the info on converting the front bodywork, grill, and lights from the 2wd. setup to the wider 4x4 pieces.

When I was in highschool, the guys lowering their trucks were all converting to the wider 4x4 stuff so their tires would tuck into the fenders better. We aren't lowering per se, but would like to convert to the wider grill and lights so the bulged front fenders won't be so obvious...

The look we're going after is something along the lines of the old MTEG stadium trucks run by PPI with Toyota backing. The plan is to run 32" tires and keep the truck as low as possible. Looks like we're going to have to trim the firewall a bit or push the front tires forward...

Thanks in advance,

The only thing different size wise is the fenders. the grilles look a little different but they will all fit in the same mouting points. The headlight bezels usually have to go with the grille though. IF all u want is the wider look just get two 4wd fenders.
