Looking for a VE
Hey guys,

Quick question.
As I noticed that the car I bought recently (found out afterwards, it had been in a collision, so the front bar was replaced), I didn't realise the front bar was the same as the series 1 on mine.
But I'm curious, is it difficult to fit a new front bar to these cars? Like if I was to chase down one already in black from like a wreckers, from a series 2 that has the chrome surrounds on the grills, am I able to fit this myself or should I leave it to a professional?
Like, I feel like it's going to just be a few bolts and screws, anyone done this before?

Edit: or are the chrome surrounds replaceable by just the grilles?

The headlights on the VE II are slightly different so the whole lot needs to be changed.

Oh dammit, that's frustrating. I just wanted the chrome surrounds. The grilles different sizes also?
