Front bumper won't fit unless you change the wings to saloon versions too.

The wagon is about 40mm narrower than the saloon, so anything that fits widthways need to be checked carefully. Off the top of my head: wishbones, anti roll bars, front drop links, bumpers are all slightly different sizes. They can all be fitted but it's not straight forward.
However, classic saloons and non widetrack bugeyes are almost exactly the same width (+/- 5mm) so the wishbones, arb's etc. will fit a wagon.
I've got meister r coilovers on my wagon and they are the same as for saloons, however I can't promise the same for any others as I think there are differences in the mounts.
