Default Sapphire and hatchback rear bumpers - are they the same?

I'm after a rear bumper for my 1990 Sierra Ghia hatchback and I need a new rear bumper for it, does anyone know if one from a sapphire will fit?

I might have possibly found one but don't know if it's a sapphire or hatch one!

As with the rear lights, they look the same at a glance, but are actually completely different.

Also the later models only had one number plate light (not that this presents a problem really)

You can still get Sapphire bumpers from Ford. They are in that grainy plastic though and the towing eye section has no flap (flap can be modded on though). They are around Ł180 IIRC
