Default Bumper Tryouts

Has anyone ever tried to use a 3 door cossie front bumper on a sapphire cossie saloon?

If anyone has, can they please post a pic up so I may see how it looks. I'm considering to do it on my sapph but don't want to do it if its not going to fit and it will look crappy.

Also will it fit or be inter-changable?

Cheers

Wow, looks insane Brammer. Did you drop the suspension or does the bumper just give it that image?

Did you custom smoke paint the flickers yourself or buy them like that?

Cheers

Looks ok, only thing I don't like is the extra pair of indicators....

Don't like it at all

I do like the Sapphire bumper that was RS 500'd though. It's a twist on the original, but doesn't look out of place.

I think if a strip was lost on between the top of the bumper and the grilles/indicators then it wouldnt look so bad, just too much bumper. Inquisitive to see what it would look like in a different colour...moonstone or white etc

I wonder if it would look better with the standard head lights and indicator lamps. I do agree about too much gap between the strip and bumper. My fav colour on any ford is Performance Blue or Moonstone. I"d also blank the spare indicators and put fogs lamps on. Use one piece splitter. Think it will look good.

What do you all think?
