Both wings (fenders), lamp pods, badge panel & nose plus side/fog lights &
indicators, the fittings are different under the skin too. To do a 'proper
job' would be a lot of work, you might find it easier to get a donor car so
you can take bits off it as required.

For a quick result you can get a 'look-alike' nose that fits to the standard
wings (fenders) & badge panel.

Try here for some pics & a list of the parts needed:

go to www.americaninternationalracing.com

they are the makers of the lookalike Turbo nose and tail

round figures about USD 1,000 for both ends and the driving/fog lights
