After a Fairmont bonnet, colour irrelevent.

Will also swap my EF GLi front end for it.

had any luck yet??


i have one and a few other parts you may need.
but i live in townsville. so i'm pretty far away

fairlane ones will also fit.....
tried ure local wreckers?

whats difference between fairmont and gli bonnets?
any one got pics?

hmm there is a major difference, fairmont has creases kinda think in it.

amber what front are you gonna put on it, the fairmont/fairlane wouldnt look all that good on hot chilli me thinks

neither....xr would've been better...plus u can use ure bonnet

compared to

i think gli looks better :S
in a way

it all ure own opinion....personally i perfer the fairmont front

Personally I prefer the Ghia front

well, we can't all be mr fancy-schmansy ghia owners now can we steve...

...and the difference is? o.O

Ugly - Was just stating that a plain EF/EL fairmont front end isn't as pretty as an XR / Ghia front end - no malice intended to your Bitsa

LSD - Chrome inserts mainly...sorry, I should have been more explicit earlier :

The EF Fairmont front end is too similar to the EF Fairmont Ghia front end - ie they have no distinguishing differences other than a different colour grille AFAIK (standard are grey or black - EF Fairmont Ghias got the Chrome?).

The EL Fairmont front end is the same as a standard EF Fairmont front end although the grille is different - the EL having a chrome outer with a different plastic inner. However the EL Fairmont Ghia front ends got the chrome inserts in the front bumper moulds as well as a colour coded 'inner' part of the grille.

Sure, they're subtle differences and if you've got an EF Fairmont, you can easily turn it into an EL Fairmont / Ghia with little fuss (I think bottlejack or blackjackoriginal did this conversion?) - as we all know, the bonnet, lights and bumpers are the same with the provision for the NF/NL/DF/DL cornering lamps etc.

**Anywaaaay** Back on topic (lol) - Amber...why not do an XR conversion instead ? As it has been said, you already have the bonnet, all you need are the lights and the bar ! I know everyone's after $$$ for the XR front ends...but it may be cheaper than changing to a Fairmont front end if you add the cost of respraying a fairmont bonnet (given no fairmonts came out in Le Mans red as you know).

Is Jase able to source parts for ya's ?

hehe and i was stiring you up for the hell of it! bloody ghia owners... think they're just soooooo good...

just a class above the rest of us arnt they
