   Hello chaps,
   
   Thinking of mk2'ing my mk1 VTS, tis white.
   
   I know that I would need a mk2 bonnet (any) and VT* wings, also a "slam panal (which is what and where??) and lights. Would I be able to use the wheel arches on my mk1? Are they the same?
   
   Also, how much du think getting the bonnet / wings and arches would cost? (assume slam panal wont need spraying)
   
   
   Cheers for any advice you can provide

   Slam pannel about £20
   Bonnet anything upto £100
   Pair of wings about £60
   also need headlight inserts £18
   
   painting could cost upto £300 (not sure thou)
   
   VT arches are the same for mark1 and mark2
   
   Im in the proccess of doing it to my mark1 VTR and almost have all the parts.. however I think the lights are going to cause a problem and you may have to buy aftermarket lights because I dont think the headlight motors will be able to fit into the mark 2 lights and I don't know how much of a problem this will cause at MOT time.
   
   hope this helps.. Matty.
