not with out some heavy modification. it is 3 or so inches wider than the orginal front end and not nearly as tall.

I think the stock mount points are different.

that's a magnum with a charger front end and I'm also pretty sure it's photoshopped. you can also put a cadillac escalade front end on a chevy silverado and a lincoln navigator front end on a ford f-series...BUT all of those cars share the same chassis as the car from which the front end is coming so the front clip is more or less a bolt on. The xb and xb2 are not on the same chassis so it will never be a matter of unbolting one and bolting it to the other...plus it would look dumb either way you did it.

Yes, I don't think the round xB2 fender will mesh with the xB square doors. Kinda like fitting a round peg in a square hole.
