Hi mate, the blue one is the pre face lift one, as bpb says you need the facelift one, just looking for a pic !

although they both will fit the newer version (better looking I think) has 1 air inlet the top space taken by a smaller quart indicator, where the older one has a full insert wrap round indiciator and does look dated IMO of course.

Version 3 and 4 I think had the early version bumper with the facelift bonnet and lights, version 5 and 6 had the bumper Mick has posted up...if I remember rightly of course Hope this helps.

Front splitters and fog light covers are spot on, and i believe Precious metals , do paint work as well now....
