Bumper comes off like so...

http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/thread.asp?ThreadID=57924

Fitting a later bumper is very straight forward & involves only drilling one or 2 new fixing holes as its a 95% straight fit.

Only thing that doesn't match up is the brake cooling ducts which most people just leave - although one person I know did a custom pipe to sort this issue out.

Good Luck !

Hi,

I've done the same mod too. It's very easy and is about a 95% fit, the only problem i had was the side inner wing mounting points. The metal bits that attach to the old bumper wouldn't fit the new one, so i just binned them. The bumper still attaches at the top the the wing so i think its good enough.

Good luck,

Tony.
