Hi, I'm new to the forum, thanks for having me!

I have an x reg a4 1.8 SE that I've done a grave injustice to. Will the bonnet, bumper, passenger side front wing and headlamp from a w reg a4 1.9 TDI estate fit?


Thanks for reading.

There was a facelift in early 2001.

W plate is ~2000
X plate is either 2000 or 2001

It all depends when your X plate was registered.

There is no difference in front end body parts on a saloon vs an avant.

Thanks Sam. I've been told it's the last of the old design, so I'm assuming 2000.

The paint code is LZ6L - Cactus green pearl. Do you know if there are variants of dark green? The parts I've seen look the right colour but...

Thanks again.

In that case it should be a straight swap.

As for the colours, Kaktusgruen is a 97/01 colour so it should (he says) be the same. Obviously the two paints could have changed over time, but you should be ok.
