   The front end is a piece of to swap over
   
   You will need the mk2
   
   Wings
   Bonnet
   Headlights
   Slam panel
   
   But i think the mk2 silver is a different shade of silver to the mk1...

   £400 is about right for that lot really,can always sell the doors etc if you don't need them

   think theres a bit of trimming needed where the slam panel meets the front of the chassis leg but not 100% sure
