The problem with this in't the transmission, it's the muffler. The chin spoiler on the XBs mounts directly to the mufflers via some bizarre looking extension brackets welded to the muffler. If you can find someone to make you some appropriate custom brackets it's certainly possible, but honestly it's probably more trouble than it's worth.

Good luck though, and if you get it done I'm sure there are tons of people with Blasts on this site that would love to have a set of the brackets themselves!

ok well thanks for the help. j/w if you would know if the 9s mirrors would fit a blast? i'm tired of looking at my shoulders and the S's mirrors go out to the side more.

Obviously someone will have to confirm this, but I believe that the studs on the mirrors of that style (used on the Blast, X1, M2, and XB9S) are all the same size and are interchangeable.
