Hi all
I would like to know if anyone has done this conversion?
I have purchased a shiny new Vic grille for my 1275gt and would appreciate any help as I think I have just dived into something which I know little about
Would the grille need to be chopped,and how would I fit the head lamps ????
Please help

i belive it will be the same as most ct a piece out the middle to shorten then make custom brakets to hold the viva headlights

vauxhall vx 490 grills were used i think to make w&p grilles

Its probably just a case of shortening it, i.e. taking a bit out of the middle, then trimming it till it will fit in the original hole of the original grille!

Wont be a walk in the park but its doable!
