Mk2 > Mk1

[Liam]

I am looking at changing my Mk2 front end to a Mk1 mainly because I prefer the Mk1 front but I don't like to pov spec Mk2 bumper and I cannot afford a GSI one.

I just have a few questions, what do I actually need to do this apart from the wings, headlights & indicators, bumper and grill?

That also brings me onto my next question, as I already have mint Mk2 wings can I just remove the bits that connect to the Mk2 grill as they are only spot welded on or is there more differances between the two?

Cheers. :thumb:

GSI bumper will be cheaper and less work

MK1 wings have a larger cut out due to the size of the mk1 lights.

Have some +rep for having the sence of making a Mk2 look better lol

Beggars belief I've given you a tickle recently so must share the love lol

MK1 wings have a larger cut out due to the size of the mk1 lights.
Just looked at my Nova and realised that. I knew the lights where bigger etc. I thought that the bit that was spot welded on went right under the light but it doesn't. lol

Plus I also have a set of revolution RFX's that I don't think suit a Mk2 and I have alot of ideas floating around in my head that just wouldn't suit a Mk2.

can't you shorten the bit under the headlight and bend it back round on itself to keep the original wings so the mk1 lights fit?? just wondering

Your on the ball tonight soufie lol

pity I can rep you for the epic tune :(

OT, are you wanting early snowplough style front or SR/GTE style?

[Southie]

Bazil I have my moments now and again, must be the fish fingers tonight mmmmm the omega of fish oil lol

[Liam]

Would like snowplough front but without the bottom bit as I know the snowplough is rare and expensive. If not then I still like the GTE look. I am looking at making the car something like MK1_Ben (http://www.pngclub.com/forum/member.php?u=78848)'s. :thumb:

[bazil]

Ah so the early front then,

soufie, brain food FTW

oh and I'm a fully paid member of the gsi and speedlines club lol

[Southie]

Bazil just get yours built and enjoy the gsi lol

[bazil]

:( I miss my nova, but atleast in the interest of balance I have a gsi with speedlines and a GTE aswell :)

I'm letting them both rust without favouring either lol

[Southie]

For your 40th it will be a good day to yourself, "at last I own a rot free Nova" lol

[bazil]

That's a bit hopefull at my pace lollol

[Southie]

Feck it 60 then, drink some buckfast and kabooooom the Novas finished lol
