Its VERY possible, its the same car, but with a diff front. I know someone doing it at the moment.
It can and has been done to a manta before. The chap has re-named his car a mancona. _________________ Nurburgring - Not for girls ![](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y99/Arnold_the_swimmer/sigmt4.jpg) |

He came up to chop the sunroof out of the white Calibra I had here.
Nice motor he has, think he's called Callybeaker on Migweb. _________________ The most hip hop mofo to ever come out of Halifax.....Jam Master Jay in d house!!! |
