    Hi, i wonder if it is possible to fit a Saxo front on a 106 "bolt-on" or if needs modifixations. Anyone did it already?

    I will build a Peugeot Saxo

    You mean the plastic wideners? Thats smaller details i think

    Mine is an XSi -92. So i will get a complete front with arches from Saxo.

    Trying to find diffrences, and i think i found small details that can make this a bit challenging.

    Line between door and fender seems different, straight on Saxo and a bit rounder on 106. (Maybe need to change doors to then)

    Front plate seems to be a bit different.

    Anyone got pics on the saxo front stripped, without bumper and lights on?

    Must know everything before getting parts, because Saxo was never sold in Sweden so finding parts on the junkyard is very hard. Maybe i have to buy many parts new, and that will cost some money. And if it not fit at all, a can not sell the parts again!

    Of course i can post pictures when i start working on it. The car will get a total rebuild over the winter anyway. This summer it has only been a test bench for turbocharging, and for next season ill put a 1600cc in it too

    the wings are longer on the saxo than the 106 so you would have to change the wings, i triedto fit a vt arche on a 106 and its alot different. coz of that i dont no if the bonnet and bumper would fit. they are the same chassis so it must be possible.

    Doors are the same.

    You need to change the bumper, wheel arches, front wings and the headlights.
    Slam panel should be the same if i remember corrently.

    Ok, I have som problems with some tech terms in english, so please help.

    arches = plastic widener on fender?

    Wings = fender? http://www.nor-as.dk/desktopmodules/...%5C0518314.jpg

    Slam panel = http://www.nor-as.dk/desktopmodules/...%5C0518201.jpg

    Slam panel looks different on pictures. But I own a angle grinder and weld
