mk3 front end

[Mckellar]

Had a look and cant find info i want.

What parts are needed to convert mk2 front end using mk3 front end parts.

Slam panel/lights/bonnet/bumper ?
I know a few folk have done it, needing a rough idea of costs - il be using salvagable parts so price will vary.

If i cant do a mk3 front end, im going to need to keep hunting for some 2nd hand mk2 bumpers to smooth off nicely

Thanks, David

bumper
bonnet
head lights
wings
repeater lights
washer jets
bonnet catch (i think)
front panel (needs modifying depends on model) usually tow eye area and radiator mounts

i think? that was about it ?

iirc wings are the same?
bonnet catch i think goes with bonnet/slam pannel

wings are different, due to the shape of the headlights, and the placement of the bumper.

think that's about it though....

Dont do it!

I would rather do it to the rear end, i like the front but i think the back looks dated, soon enough though it will look retro cool!

Im thinking about doing the back end, but by the sounds of it, i need to do alot of work. So pricing it up at the min!

mk2 back looks sooooo much better than the mk3 back.

i think the mk3 still looks quite modern, mk2 definately an old looking car, its just down to whether or not you perceive it to be old sCOOL!

Rear end would be expensive but i would love to do it!

i love the mk2 rear end and mk3 front end

Seems as though its more work than i cut out for it to be
mk2 front end with some fabrication i think

Thanks for the help everyone though!
