for a full ver6 conversion, you will need :

facelift bumper (inc wedges, indicators, fog covers or foglights)
facelift grille
facelift bonnett (inc grilles and scoop)
facelift grille
facelift headlights


hope that helps

There will be even less left preface soon, I like mine being preface.
Some Bi-Xenon HIDS help the lighting, but prefer the original looks.

sorry to pull this out the wood work.

But on a facelift, are the wings different to a pre-facelift?

I've just had a 99/00 bumper off Doncaster Motor Spares, aka MotorHog, breakers at Bentley nr Donny. £85 and it came with clear indicators, wedges AND foglights which I promptly e-bayed for £56, so the bumper cost £29.

If you can wait until mid May, I'll have a facelift mkI bumper, (the one off a 98 car, three slots, not two, larger indicators), ready cut for FMIC, plus MrO Styling splitter available in 559 bright red, you can have it cheap.

Thanks for that guys. Very useful.

I have just beeb offer bonnet, grill, lights, bumper wings and side lights from a 2000 UK turbo for 400. Looks in good nick too. Different silver to mine mind.

Is there a difference between say 98 face lift to a 2000?

Yes, the later BUMPER has only two slots at the outer edges, the upper one carries a smaller indicator, the lower a wedge of plastic grille, orange at first sale.

The earlier bumper had THREE slots, the top one carried a larger indicator, the bottom two were open.

The later cars also had crystal headlights and foglights, the earlier ones having fluted lenses.

All the rest was the same...........oh, nearly forgot, the later grilles project further forward at the bottom.

So the 2000 turbo would be the most up to date I guess.

Is 400 a fair price?

That is definitely the bumper and bonnet, pretty sure the grill and lights are the same.

Again thanks guys

Have seen a few pics of preface cars with just the lights changed and tbh they look great, and would be great for a temp measure or as a light upgrade.

Some pics I`ve found.
