I have the 99 Pre Facelift Model

It's a bit of a mess.

I sourced a bumper from an 03 Reg classic i.e the post facelift model.

Will it fit?

Also I fancy the facelifted bumper, looks better than mine?

Will this fit and I've heard the lights are different.

Also how do I get to the nuts and bolts holding the rear bumper on when I come to changing it.

Any help, Much appriciated as always guys!

You are correct in the lights are different. The bumper will fit but it will a small gap between the headlights and the bumper.

I had a feeling the rad grill might be a different shape too?

The rear bumper has some bolts/nuts which are behind the black "rub" strip - I don't recall there being any on the actual rear of the bumper from when I fitted my towbar. This was for an estate, fwiw.

To make it all fit you need the front bumper, wings, headlights, indicators, and grille from a pre or post facelift car to go onto the recipient.
