6n2 front end on a 6n

Hi there,
Does anyone know if the full front end of a 6n2 will easily bolt on to a 6n. For my 97 6n I need the front panel, front bumper, the two front wings, bonnet and the headlights. I have seen this done on a few 6n polo's and I am extremely interested in getting it done to my car. Is this easily done? Any help would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Paul

From what i remember, No. You'll need the front wings sorting to accommodate the bumper. It would prob be better to blend the bumpers.

Its not a direct replacement and you will need some fabrication to the parts for everything to fit. You may want to consider getting a 16v bumper and blending it to the bottom half of a 6n2 to make it look more modern. Just get some decent headlights and source some honeycombe grills after that.

i've got a 6n2 front bumper merged with the top half of a 6n, looks good but is expensive to do properly, i warn!

I had this conversion done to my polo... you have to change the whole front end! front wings dont sit perfect to begin with, so theres a bit of work needed to have it all sitting as it should!
heres a pic of mine below:
