VS FRONT bumper on VN?

[Nathan54321]

Hi anyone who has any experience with Frankenstein cars please help, there are many people with VN's tired of they're poxy stock bumper unpainted and all,

I can get a VS FRONT bumper cheap and i wish to fit one to my VN.

The question is can it be done?, are the mounting types the same?, are the mounting dimensions the same?

also anyone with a VN with a VS FRONT bumper on it can u post any pics please ;D

anythings possible but your going to have to cut the grille section out and fibreglass it flat to fit the vn grille too much stuffing around in my opinion.
edit: probably easier to the whole front if that fits..

if you want to see what a living abortion looks like, go for it...

[bogan_vk]

Fair enough , the opinions of the public are detering me from doing so, so.... no i wont put on a VS bumper but this pic of the green ute looks alright so maybe ima get body kit similar... thnx any way for your opinions.

[HSV5L]

just put a stock vs front end conversion the one above looks space ship .

Just one thing does the vs bumper fit (excluding the uppergrille) on a vn subframe, if so then artwork is only needed, and no bolting mods?

coz the vn and vs ute have virtually the same outershell true?

[dzach23]

i'm guessing it does if the senator front does then a stock vs will

pm boonz he'll be able accurately help you answer

ps i don't know if he still has his vn that image was from a thread from 2005.

a vs bar wont fit on with vn guards im pretty sure but a vs bar,guards and bonnet will all bolt on a vn body

i'm guessing it does if the senator front does then a stock vs will

if your talking about the green ute, that would be a fibreglass aftermarket bar,i was going to buy one years ago for my old vn.

Have a look at a VN then a VS. Different guards, bonnet and lights..... It is possible but a little bit of customising is needed from memory. Search and you will see no doubt some one else has done it.
