Yes!
Do a search as there were some pics of these conversions a while back. Or try Google.

I think some of the pictures were photoshopped.

Look horrid to be honest.

Not a standard grill as a mk3 is wider.

I quite like some of them! Gave it a very clean line and looked FAR better than a Vento front! :evil:

I'm sorry but i think it looks like what would happen if Garry Glitter had sex with a Mk2.

Some were photoshops, some were authentic. It was pretty tricky for the few authentic ones. It's also seriously marmite  :grin:

It is possible, but it's not exactly easy, because you'll probably have to mod the wings and the bonnet.

mk2 grill is totally different from mk3.
