I know there a couple kits that make the FC body come close to the FD look. Though, the best way to get FD look is to buy the FD. You would prolly come close to paying the same amout after buying installation and painting. (including car and tune-up etc.)
I don't want to even try to think about the costs and making a FD bumper fit an FC.

My friend but a black R1 front on his s5. looked pretty cool. Motor blew before he could have it all sanded out and painted. I'll see if he has any pics.

There is one here about halfway down the page: http://www.teamfc3s.org/forum/showth...724#post234724
It is purple, but I don't know who it belongs to. If anyone has any other pics of it please post up.

I think I might try it instead of the FC 2000 front like I had planned. Those FD flush lights are spendy though, but that would take away a lot of the complications of doing the conversion. I think that with shaved side and rear mouldings, a diff. rear bumper and some side skirts would look amazing.

The Yamaguchi 3rd gen book has pics of a white test mule FC with an FD front nose and engine in it. Actually looked half decent, but still as said, the roundness conflicts with the blocky 80's style of the FC.
