Yeah their interchangeable. Front bar does need slight modification to fit
so its only the front bar? the rest bolts on?
if ur doin face lift conversion, should b straight bolton job, and slight modding on the support bumper tabs is needed
+1 for above.
nah just someone decided to do a hit and run on my em1 over the weekend which damaged the front end. Found a couple of ej8 rolling shells so was just gonna buy one and swap the parts over.
not worth the trouble man, better of just buying a em1 again if ur dead set on wanting a new car, OR better yet fix ur current car... unless u plan on doin a full engine conversion, brake swaps, pretty much everything, than respraying the body to the em1 color or vice versa, its gonna cost u alot more than u think doin a EM1 parts with the face lift into a Ej8 shell
Just replace whats broken, unless the chassis has been bent in some way than id suggest just replace what was hit... everything from the rad support to quarter panels and head lights can be replaced easy.... even the suspension parts, A-arms and lca can all be replaced easily, dont loose hope in ur car lol
Yea nah as in i was gonna buy fenders,and a bonnet off a ej8 that is of the same colour as my EM1 and put it on my EM1. So just needed to know whether or not EJ8 and EM1 fenders and bonnets were the same. Thanks for the help and advice btw
all goods man, hrmmm if thats the case like u said, unfortunately if u use ur em1 headlights, the bonnet and fenders wont line up at all, if at all wont fit
Dont limit urself to just EM1 parts because than u really are limiting urself.. As long as the car is a 99 - 00 model ur good :), they all use the same bumper/fenders/headlights
mugen_ctr is right. however i prob wouldnt recommend you to put and ej8 front on your em1 cos you'll basically be doing a pre-facelift front on your em1 which you dont want. nowadays its very hard to come across oem 99-00 fenders and a bonnet but theres only 1 place id recommend you to go for those parts. although they may not be genuine, they have oem certified parts and fit 95% perfect with very little adjustments.
Mr. CarParts in brunswick. They have replica parts that are cheaper (not great fitment) and oem certified which are a little more expensive but bang for buck. goodluck buddy
Agreed, dont downgrade yourself, and also its hard to find a mint facelift front end now a days, been looking around for 2 months to do my ej8 front conversion might as well get replica parts.Quote:

Perhaps the BYS front bumper? They're a good look and I was thinking about changing it at one point..
Here's a thread that has a pic of it.
