WTT: Front End Swap

Re: WTT: Front End Swap

This technique has been tried several times and I think usually what just works best is to buy the truck parts either from a wrecker or new and do the swap yourself. I even tried it with my mk3 which is a lot easier (Only need lights grill and hood) and still had no luck.

Not trying to be a downer, but I have yet to see a successful swap by going this route.

Also unless the paint is an exact match it's not worth it either as a body shop will charge more time to get used panels looking good whereas new panels can just be painted without any prep.

I never trusted a swap.. I usually end up on the losing end.. huhhuu

Well I would easily pay for aftermarket parts, if it means getting the swap done, but I want a stock jetta bumper thats really the big one for me, I don't like most aftermarket jetta bumpers. IMO Votex is the best looking out there or a molded GLI lip.
