Default series 1 crossmembers (mk3)

i figured i'd get more looks if i put series 1 so here we go

i have a mk3 3i that is in desperate need of a full x member, any 1 in the know tell me if the removal of the old 1 will damage the front panel??

i will prob have to do it myself as i cant find any 1 up for the challenge


car looks loverly otherwise but im real tempted to break it cos it needs welding in a few other places too

any1 with a mk3 xmember for sale?
or like welding and lives nr norfolk/suffolk?
