It looks like you would need a new bonnet. This should be a popular conversion but I don't think I've ever seen or heard of one.

It would look pretty nice, thinking about it myself now, but with the Grange bumper, only thing is I'd have to get VT headlights for my VX.

The quarter panels look the same to me too.

Dunno if places even make grange bodykits so might be hard to track one down, but yeah, better than looking like everyone else's car. Good luck

There's a wagon getting around in Adelaide with a wh front end on it, looks bloody nice, Stock but nice. I was under the impression the the wagons and statesman's had a wider front end than the commie, could be wrong though.
