    1- yes im pretty sure its all bolt on. ( im unsure tho)
    2- side guards L and R, headlights, front bar, and i think bonnet. would be best to try your wreckers.

    So you effectively want a VZ look?

    He has a sedan. And you would have to chop and change the quarter panels and get everything else.

    He wants to obviously do this to his Vx do give him advice on it. Telling him to buy a Vz is just useless

    My bad. In the first line he refers to a wagon. Didn't see he's got a sedan.

    You have never seen it cause it's complicated and expensive.
