Hey there, i have a '90 MR2 GT with the veilside front and side kit, i want to put the front bumper, side skirts and rear tail lights off the later model MR2. Does any one know whether they are a straight bolt up??

Pretty much, the sidevents are the same on all model SW20s, you need to "panelbeat" the sheetmetal to get the late model reversing lights to fit. The front bumper cover is a direct replacement, it's pretty much the same for all models apart from a different lip on the later model, and a different bolt pattern for the lip on the main cover.

It would be a lot cheaper to stick with the veilside stuff though, and much easier and cheaper to repair/replace if it breaks. just the late model lip is $400 from Toyota.

well at the moment the front kit is about 2-3" of the ground, once i get some adjustable suspension and lower it, it'll probably touch the ground!

PS i would try and do a swap for the front and side veilside for a late model factory kit and tail lights?!?!?!?! anyone?
