Well I was backed into today ironically by someone on vacation from Munich. It appears to be a good time to just update my 99 to the 02 style front end. If anyone has done this could you email me the part numbers. I am intending on buying the parts from Suncoast and have everything pretty much down except the deal on the lights. My question is will the newer style lights just slide into my old style tracks or did the mounting tracks change in 02? I know the wiring is a bit different but I heard that you can just splice into the old harness to make it work. Is this true? Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!

Bummer....but damage does not look too deep.....is the hood aligned ok, or will you replace that too?

Sorry about your woes. But the end results should be worth it!

No, you will have to buy new headlight tracks as well. The headlight plugs are different on the 02's too as well.

want me to return the favor?

I'll be in Munich(or Muenchen as it is called here ) sometime soon, hopefully during our 2 week "spring break", let 'em know that us Chicagoans can do some damage too, only problem is I won't have a car, so i'll have to do it the Louisville Slugger way

but yea, that sux... where in Chicago are you from? city? burbs?

Having such an upgradeable car is the only positive factor to getting your precious nailed. You jacka$$ you just nailed my porsche......and paid for my aero kit!
