Just one of those things that kinda popped into my head.

Could you put an EF XR6 front on an EB/ED? Bonnet, front bat, quarters.
I would assume that it's not a direct bolt on, but probably could be done with some modifications.

I've seen a lot of wierd cars (mainly vl commys with vy bodykits), so was just wondering whether it could be done, and if it would look tacky.

It can be done because I've seen some pics of a dark blue EB with an EL XR front on it. Don't know how difficult it would be. I will try to find the pics.

The lines would flow perfectly to the doors and body as theyre all the same, and the rear would also match the doors. Its like a match made in heaven if you ask me. If only :D

I don't see the point, I mean sure it looks good from the front, that's because it looks exactly like the EF XR, but it dones't really match the rear, and unless you can do it all yourself, it'd cost a bit to have it done. Might aswell just save up for the EF XR and get the extras with it! But each to there own, and it'd be a fun and different modification to try!

Nevermind but, it'll disappear for ya
