hey eveyrone
was jus thinking. is it any way possible to put a vk front end onto a vl
alll youd have to do is change both kickpanels, maybe add some screws/bolts here n there. raise the bolt ons to the chassy in the engine bay.
but is it possible if somenoe had the time and the money?
i love the look of the front of VK's and love the look of the rear VL.
thre would have to be heaps of moderation goign on to do this, but approx how much?
cheers

Front ends on VKs with a brock grill look much better then a normal sl,exec and berlina front end. I think I have seen it done before as well.

VK is too boxy compared to a VL front.

VL
Yeah the VL front has smoother lines, and isn't as boxy and hard (If you can say that?) as the VK front end.
