Headlights, hood, grill, and fenders I think are what is needed.

all you need is the hood, grill headlights, and the headlight harness, and that is it, nothing else

Not Necessarily. There is the easy way to do it. You can buy an adapter for you grill that fits the contor of the headlights retaining the jetta hood and fenders. Yes this is the cheaper way but it wont look as good as the way Bisquit mentioned. But that is what was done to my car and it looks pretty good i suppose... Just depends what kinda money you wanna spend...
