lol shame your car is WRB otherwise I would swap my front end for yours.
imo the blob is the best looking scoob

imho the blob is the best looking scoob (I am on my third) but I know many people prefer the hawk. As for the parts, there are a few parts on ebay at the minute to give you an idea (also, is the slam panel different? If so don't forget about this)

Yes you'll need a new slam panel too

Has anyone posted a 'how to ' on doing this?

If anyone with an O2C blue hawk wants a blob front end conversion PM me. Might be an obvious solution.

Slam panel, headlamp panel, cross member are different. As are the hawk inner wings.

You've probably seen this but Scott at Scooby Spares has a complete Hawk front end for sale from a Spec-D they are breaking. He's got it at £2k on ebay at the moment it seems so if you move now you'll get all the bits you need I'd imagine.

If anyone ever want to do a swap this post is where we need to start...

Thanks for the above......

Is there a how to guide on here? if so i cant find it....

How much cutting and welding is needed if any?




I also just took some pics of my front end so when the parts are ready, they are for sale....

Front panel, headlamp panel and inner wings need cutting.

The correct way is the way I told you the full front upper panel and headlamp panels,

The guy in that link has chopped his headlight panels or as I like to say cocked it.

The upper slam panel is about £60 new.

You also need the hawk bonnet lock and the bonnet stay too.

Do it right because if you chop them then ever have a front end bump your guna be uninsured.

Insurance is a fair point.

However i got a FMIC on and don't have that main front panel...

Another Q.. are the inner arch liners the same apart from the base where they reach forward to meet the front bumper?

Nope different again.

So you have no crash bar?? That huge heavy bar serves a point lol

Just the lower section removed. To fit the FM.
