i found another difference, im not sure if its common on fb's, i noticed on my mates fb on the front doors just in front of the vent windows on the inside of both doors there is a cap about the size of a 20 cent peice. i then looked at my ek and it has a pressed similar shape which is part of the sheet metal and not a cap. anyone else notice it on their car?

Yep - it is an access hole to fit the nut that holds the chrome trim clip onto the door.

8) I may be wrong but also the little wheel bracket for the handbrake cable on the front near the y frames in in a different angle/direction. I have 2 different front ends and both are at different angles.

The bonnet bar is a different profile with no badge area on FBs ,

Guard bonnet bar extensions stop rather than wrap around into the blinker as on EKs

FB grille has 3 bars , EK has 5

EK speedo had a needle FB speedo has an orange area that grew at speed.
