Mix matching R33 series 1 and 2 ?!?!?!

[Lepperfish]

Does anyone know if the series 2 R33 bonnet, front bumper and headlights will fit straight onto the series 1 R33 ?

And is there a carbon fibre bonnet to suit the series 1 ?

Some dumbass reversed into my car with a ute and wrecked the bonnet. So I need to do something with it all. Any suggestions?

I was also thinking about putting on a GTR style front bar as I have a GTR rear wing and maybes the carbon bonnet if one could be made to suit.

Thanks for any input guys.

yeah u will need front bumper support, headlights, bumper and bonnet from a series2 if u want the series2 look. uniqueautosports.com.au may sell a series 1 carbon bonnet, but they are around $1k, worksauto.com.au sell a series1 r33 bonnet i know, carbon. if i were u i'd get maybe get a carbon bonnet, and a gt-r front bar, u'll find more kits that will fit easier onto a series1 front end.

Yeah the unique and worksauto carbon bonnets are the same.

I think i'll get the carbon bonnet and a GTR style front bar.

Would look good I think, does anyone have any pictures of an R33 series 1 with a carbon bonnet ? :shake:

i would like to know if anyone has done this, but the other way around

such as a fibreglass 400R or GTR front bumper on a series2, because most kits are made for series1?

51jay car looks tough

how does that S1 front bar line up against the head lights? do the headlights protrude further infront than the bar sits under them, or is it ok? or vice versa, where the headlights seem to sit too far back and the bumper is too far forward?

do u have any pics looking from above the headlights or from the side of the car? cheers

The basic difference seems to be that the series 2 lights are flatter with less curve along the front length so they sit further back from the edge of the bar and show a gap about 10mm where you can see the rear edge of the bar. I now have a 400R bar to suit series 2...from UAS. Ididn't have to alter the front support bar because basicly it's mostly gone. for interest the series 2 lights were approx $520 each including delivery from Sydney, I got them via Zoom Auto Imports 07 3348 6939. I ended up buying 3 'cos 2 weeks after I fitted them (straight bolt on swap) I hit a kangaroo!!!!
