VN with VP bits

[DANNY8]

Well I might be getting a real nice VN Calais. I love the look of the VP Calais' tho....what's different between the VN body and VP body? Can I just throw a VP bumper/boot, headlights/tail lights/grill and the rear wheel splats in? Does it all fit pretty simple or is there more to it?

The VP front blinkers go round the corner of the guard more so I'd imagine you'd need the guards as well. Taillights light up different too from memory, but if they bolt in they should still work, just as per VN, not VP. Don't see why the rest wouldn't be a straight swap, but don't quote me.

grille, headlights, front bar, front reo (vp reo has extra piece to prop up bar), front guards, front indicators, side guard indicators wired in as well as holes in the guard, taillights, boot garnish (vp garnish has numberplate lights wired in) rear bar. the quarter windows, drip rail trim, and belts molds are different. finally the vp has bonnet gas struts where the vn has a rod. if your going to put vp calais rear wheel arch spats your going to need the door molds that go with it or its not going to look right. thats all i can think of right now....

thx guys. doesn't sound to bad.

boot garnish (vp garnish has numberplate lights wired in) rear bar.

I reckon the VP garnish looks bad. If I stuck a VN one on what has to be done regarding the number plate lights?

you making a vn into a vp? or vice versa. you could cut a hole in your vp bar and just transplant your vn rig into it. might look funny though....

VN = Very Nice.
VP = Very Poor.

I have a VP that I want to partially make look like a VN at the back. Red plastic the full width of a white car looks crook IMO.
