Body part options

Hi guys new member for the past couple days. I got a 2006 mini cooper non s. I got some cosmetic damage done to the front hood, bumper skin, headlight and plastic core support. I found a 2010 mini cooper s clubman at the local junkyard, wondering if anyone knows if these body panels will fit my car, I'm not worried about paint color matching because im gonna paint them anyways. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hey Slow,

My bumper, belly pan and radiator support were broken in half at the bottom from an incorrect tow. Actually the radiator support was broken in more that one spot. I fixed them all with West System Epoxy and fiberglass mat. I had the materials on hand from doing some boat repairs so I'm not sure if buying the stuff for just this project would be cost effective on not. Just another option.

There's photos of what I did on my Bargain $500 Mini build thread.
