Sparky Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Your cars a 95? Is it a EP82 model then? the same shape as a GT?If so the Glanza bonnet wont fit, there have been a few GT's converted with the complete Glanza front end but there is loads of work involved I would imagine Theres loads of traders on this site that can get you anything you need mate Hope this helps Quote Link to post Share on other sites

puma Posted July 6, 2008 Author Share Posted July 6, 2008 What about the GT bonnet? It has the scoop...yes it looks good too.i just want a more sporty look.thanks for the input guys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paulgtt Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 I would imagine turning it into a GT replica wouldn't be too difficult or expensive really, lots of bodywork parts in the "for sale" section atm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
milan Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 You've got in Ireland what is commonly known as the bubble shape Starlet,the shape after the boxy ones.These are nice little cars which can be ruined if you stick unnecessary mods on them.Get a set of Stealths,or else some Rota lighweight rims,slam it on its arse with a Laguna front splitter,bit of colour coding,nice set of front components and happy days,you've got a nice tidy first car.
