   Fitting Mk2 Bonnent And Front Wheel Arches, is this possible on a mk1?
   would it all jus clip on. Also i suppose it would just be the front and the back would be a killer to put together? really like the mk2 grill! and would like it on my mk1 any ideas? thanksss.

   basically you want to do a mk2 front end conversion?
   
   very easy just bolts on..
   
   youll need:
   mk2 bonnet
   mk2 slam panel
   mk2 front wings
   mk2 headlights

   would be best done by a pro was quoted
   
   £100 for the bonnet
   £150 for each wing
   
   be easier to get them in the same colour as your car, unless your get the part uber cheap

   could be done with a proper spray gun, but i dont know much about painting....
   
   would look good imo, more up to date

    £150 each wing? god id love to charge a few people a week at them prices. is that what your paying round your way? id say £200/£250 for just paint a front end. lol
