Help please!!

Hey guys,

I've now fianlly started fixing my HGT bravo after the accident back in Sept.

Please can you tell me if the bonnets off another model will fit mine? the same goes for the slam panel as well?

Many thanks in advance.

Bonnet off a Brava or Marea should definitely fit. Not so sure on slam panel but can't see that being any different. The main differences with the front end is that the Marea/Bravo HGT have different bumper and wings to the rest of the family.

There's something to watch out for here.....
Went to see Dan's (Skater Boys) car after Brooklands and noticed something odd. Since he's changed the front wings and bumper to Marea he has quite a large gap either side between the headlamps and the wings. At the time I was befuddled but you mentioning the slam panel has me thinking. I think maybe the light mounting points on the slam panel may be narrower on the lower models compared to the HGT.
Another point to check may be the grille. If the lights are mounted further apart maybe the grille is different on the HGT and Marea to the lower (sorry to keep saying lower but I don't know how else to say it) models. Maybe the HGT and Marea grille is slightly wider to compensate?
May be worth having a bit of a measure up.
