i have all the above but in black:n: would have thought you would have to respray anyway as earlier paint will be more faded than newer paint???

[mattyjones]

Have seen mk2 front ends on eBay for about £450, then there is respray costs n insurance lol. probably cheaper n easier just to sell yours n buy a mk2......

You neee to modify the front end of car, the slam panel isnt a direct fit, takes some chopping and welding etc...

[djflipsaxo]

the bumpers are the same, u need slam panel, lights, wings, grille, bonnnet and thats it mte

[DanJames]

Probably would be better off selling urs and buying a mk2 m8

Does it nout, i fitted a MK1 end on my old MK2 (dont ask lol) and i didnt need to bend, cut or weld any thing....it goes on just need alot of pushing...needless to say the bolts were snug :D...and yeh all you need is:

Lights
Wings
Slam pannel
Bonnet

Bumper is the same, but you need to get the little eyebrow things that fill the gap between the bumper and lights :y:

Fitting a mk1 front onto a mk2 body i havnt seen... Not sure why someone would do that...

But fitting a mk2 front onto a mk1 body needs cutting and welding

man speaks the truth. its becuase the mk2 is a tiny bit shorter than a mk1. the needs a little bit of grinding/chopping to fit the slam panel. from there you just bolt everything else on.
theres a lad with a mauritous mk1 who did a bit of a guide when he did his. look for that, might help

i want to put a mk1 end on my mk2 cause there are like ooo's in local scrap yards near me and there all in good nick and mine has been smashed up abit is that a good idea?

(dead thread i know but still...)

[chappy10]

Please please tell me why you would wanna put a mk1 front end on a mk2?

[Dano]

some people prefer the mk1 front end coz its more aggressive looking, especially with morrette headlights and badgeless open grill..

i prefer mk2, but hey ho.

[Delboy]

keep the mk1 end! looks alot better imo :)

[Gazer]

i agree mrk 1 front end is more eye catching for me :P
seems alot of work for what its worth :y:

[rorz_vts]

ive got both types of saxo and i prefer the mk1 i can understand why some people would want to do it

[Jay_]

mk1s are mean & aggro & for real men. Mk2s are more girly IMO!

[kevin37]

just cause where i am there are no citreon dealers for miles and there are loads of mk1's in scrapyards so thought it might be a good idea, seeing as there abit of damage to my bumper and front wing. Just wanted to know if it was easy or not tbh
