The guy in the unit opposite me has brought a damage/repairable early E46 (x reg) it needs bonnet, front bumper, headlights and drivers side wing.

Question is can you fit facelift panels to a pre facelift E46? ie will they bolt on as normal?

Thanks (in advance)

They will indeed. You'll need the lot though - wings, bonnet, lights although an early bumper will still fit.

I have a pair of mint pre facelift E46 saloon/Touring wings.

i've got an early e46 coupe breaking here.
its no good for body panels, as its had a front end bump,
but it does have an offside headlight, plus most of the mechanicals are ok.
