I am now nearly ready to complete my bonnet faceliftfrom my 94 to my 98.

a few questions

do the headlamps mount on the same brakets , mountings?

does the bonnet latch stay in the same place with the later grille?

will the bonnet simply fit on to the my 94 bonnet supports?

thanx

The answer to all of your questions is YES - the only problem when fitting a later front end is the intercooler doesn't quite line up with the newer bonnet scoop. But people don't seem to mind this and it still works, but not as efficient due to the rubber seal not seating correctly around the intercooler, therefore allowing the air to go around the intercooler rather than get ducted through it.

Hope this helps,

Impreza Babe.

Quick heads up -
I might have carbon bonnets available soon, if the demand is there.
They will either have scoops pre moulded or holes as standard, and can be bonnet pinned or hinged.
