conversion 2000 to 2k2/2k3

Hey, i have a few questions about a 2000 to 2003 conversion.

Right now i have a 2000 GXE with 55k miles and i am about to be going to college, so i will not have too much $$ floating around. Once i get enough miles on my car i was thinking of switching out the engine (and other stuff) to save money from buying another car.

Would this be a good idea, or would i be better off buying a new car? How much would the conversion cost? What specific parts would need to be changed?

Thanks for your help!

You'd be better off trading in your car towards a 2k2/2k3 because by the time you've invested the money to do the swap, you could've easily afforded the difference in the pay-off on your car to upgrade to a 2k2/2k3 plus you get an overall nicer car with more standard amenities, not to mention the added hp/tq.

if you want it to look like a 2k2-3 and not have to spend a shitload of money you can get the HIDs and tail lamps either from a junk yard which will be preety hard... but possible. or get them new for about $1500.00 for the HIDs from the dealer.. you also have the option of getting red/clears for the 2k2-3 on an ongoing GD in the .org. this chop looks very nice and close to the finished product.
