Two faced, and yawning. by Jumper

Is it a lengthy and expensive job to revert from R75 facelift to pre-facelift (bumpers only)? Having acquired several bits and pieces in moments of magpie-ism, no idea why - because I could I suppose, it seems rude not to. And if one did, would it help to remove the yawn over the radiator?

the early bumpers are a better fit in my opinion.but the gap can be reduced by lifting up the slam beam plus the use of spacers

I've tried raising the beam but without much success. I found the bottom of the light units baulked the bumper when replacing. I guess they can be raised, but wouldn't that affect the light beam height (MOT relevant)? I was also concerned whether the light fittings and fixing points were different.

If you have no objections young man, 'twould be preferable were you leave your model member out of this, orchasmic or otherwise. Or, as Joyce Grenfell might... - sorry, can't write any more, laughing too much.
