Default mk3 bumpers question

with the mk3 theres 3 sportyer models right, the XR2i the RSturbo and the RS1800 they all seem to have the same front valance with 4 foglamps are the bumpers the same on all 3 cars or do they vary at all?

and is it a pretty straight swap onto a base model fiesta?

The RS turbo one is slighty different from the xr2i. The 2i has a thin bit in between the top of the bumper and the bonnet think its to protect the rad. the rst don't have that bit.

sy16v - spot on.

I bolted on an Xr2i bumper onto my poverty spec 1.1 mk3 a while ago - only thing you will require is two extra nuts to screw the bumper on, as the "sportier" bumpers have 4 bolts rather than the poverty spec bumpers which only have 2.

I originally thought the rs came with the thin bit of plastic used it to get the price knocked down when i brought my RS then found out they don't come with them
