Looking for Good Volkswagen Body Shop to do MK3 to MK2 Headlight Conversion. (I want to change from MK3 GTI 96 rectangles to the MK2 1 Single Round Light on either side with an eyebrow, emblumless grill. I would like a few more custom things done but all Cross Generation Custom stuff and a aftermarket from bumper.

Is there any VW specialty guys in or around the Greater Montreal area up for something like this, Im sure a few thngs will need to get done to make it all work

Thanks MUCH for any help

Cherchez un bon Volkswagen Body Shop faire MK3 à MK2 Conversion phares . ( Je veux changer de MK3 GTI 96 au MK2 1 Seule Lumiere de chaque côté avec un sourcil , grill emblumless . Je voudrais un peu de choses plus personnalisés fait, mais tous les trucs Cross Generation personnalisé et d'un marché secondaire du pare-chocs.

Est- ce qu'il ya des gars de spécialité VW dans ou autour de la région métropolitaine de Montréal pour quelque chose comme ça, je suis sûr que quelques thngs devront se faire pour faire fonctionner le tout

Merci beaucoup pour toute aide
 
Allo? Nobody working on Volkswagen cars in Montreal? Man a few years back the same question gets posted and people would post the shop they think is good, or have gotten word done at. WHat happened is there no more Dub-Luv?
 
Gonna be ugly as fu if you actually do it. Please tell me this is not an original MK3 GTI VR6 that you intend to do this on, because you will essentially ruin the car

Just put a mk3 jetta front end, gonna be way cheaper and much better looking
 
I want to go from this



to this



is what Im after, its not ugly

do you have pics examples what your talking about?

you know that this picture is photoshopped right? There was a guy on the Vortex who had tried to do it too and it didn't look too good when he was done... just my opinion however.

No I didnt, but what about this one

it would take A LOT of work and it would cost too much money, unless you're aiming at showcar status i would not recommend doing it.
the second pic you posted was from this thread: http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?5185462-Mk3-to-mk2-front-grills-and-lights the guy put a lot of time into it.
There's another build thread here http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?4312594-MK3-Single-Rounds/page4 that shows you the complexity of making it fit because they're really not made to fit
If you're looking for just having mk2 style dual headlights, I'd suggest getting HELLA dual headlights http://www.ebay.com/itm/VW-MK3-GOLF...-W-BLACK-FRAMES-/191235441431?fits=Model:Golf
or something like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Angel-Eyes-HeadLights-VW-Golf-MK3-III-3-Black-Reflector-/190387507397 which I have and I can sell you for a good price
 
Im willing to pay to get it done right. Ive seen a civic converted to a Cadillac front end, is there no shop in MTL can do this




to my car


The pic tells me its about the right place that CAN do it, I get it might be too much of a challenge for some, but is there no shop willing to talk $$$ about it.... I mean whats the $$ deal?
 
There probably is, you just haven't found it yet.

Be patient. The one thing you don't wanna do is rush something like this.
