Any way of grafting the front grille off an SV420/620(?) onto a stocko 1.6 model? I prefer the look of them and there's one at a local wrecker's i was wanting to pilfer, but i hesitated to do so cause it looks to be a different shape. Possible without using a BFH or just stick with the normal one?

Cheers,
Red

If you could get the whole front end it would be easy. But the bonnet, gaurds, grille, top radiator support and headlight surrounds are different from the 1.6, so grafting the VS420 grille in will be a challenge.

Hmmm, i thought it was just that the grille/bumper made the headlights look different/similar/askew/ :? . If it's a whole front end changeover then it's a giant 'stuff that', pity though... oh and thinking about it are the LWB V6 a wide-chassis as well? that probably would n't help either.

Thanks guys.
