Front End/Lip Conversion !!!!

Hey!!!

What do you guys think about a GTi with a Jetta front end conversion cuz I heard it's a very popular conversion in European based countries. So I was thinking of doing it with my car when I get it.

If anybody has any advice on how to do it, it would be very much appreciated. And apparently I read in a recent Eurotuner magazine, that it's a very easy conversion to do cuz the front end is only a Bolt-on piece.

THANX
PEACE!!!! :smoker2: :grey: :sun: :bandit:

Everything bolts up, every bolt, clip and mounting point is identical.

You need is two fenders, one hood, two headlights, one bumper, and one grille from a Jetta. Remove in the in the following order: Grille, bumper, lights, fenders and hood. And put them back on in reverse order.

Step by step:

I'd say the best one is the Getta. I like the front looks sportier ( that's a word).

if its a jetta and you put on the golf front you need fenders bumper and the hood for it to fit. they use differently styled hoods
