Re: How is this front end created? Jolf Pic! (Jettaway)

since the frame and all of the jetta and golf are the same you can switch the front fairly easily. the front bumper is caractere, I dont know about the grill though. Maybe JOM since there is a JOM poster in the bg

I know that; but I think in this picture he is using Jetta fenders, and hood, but a golf front bumper, and a JOM badgeless grill that has been cut at the ends to work with the Jetta Headlights. Then the boser hood. What do guys think?

you sound pretty right, jetta fenders with golf bumpers that were molded to fit the jetta HIDS, and what looks like a kamei grill made to fit the grill...

it is a jetta bumper.. its larger with a caractere bottom.. but they cut it to fit a golf look grill and they boser'd the hood... Basically everything a jolf does, but they lowered the hood and put a custom grill..

I think its a golf bumper because if you look in front of the grill its flat like on a golf. On a Jetta their are two posts that stick up next to each headlight and the grille sits in between these posts.

In the pic above all you have to do to make the jetta lights fit on the golf bumper is cut off those two little posts. Then the Jetta lights would extend further than the golf lights therefore requiring to cut the grill straight!
If you cut the two posts off the Jetta bumper you would have to do some major molding to get the bumper to look like that!

Simple front end swap, with a light Boser, custom grill, and then a Caractere front end... not terribly complicated, although the Boser was no doubt VERY expensive...
