You will need some springs compressors to be safe but to be honest I usually dont bother.

You'll need the top mount form your old front suspension but thats it.

Remember to copperslip all the bolts and coilover thread.

Wheels are x10 better than cav slabs.
A smoothed GSI bumper would look good

What would be different is if you get the middle of the bonnet extended to meet the honeycomb grille top
