Pre/Facelift front bumpers -- same?

[buze]

Are there differences in the front bumper between facelift and pre-facelift? I've read somehting in passing on facebook about different fog light setups.

I'm getting a replacement bumper painted, and I want to make sure the bits I have on my facelift will fit!

No differences - the fogs themselves may have a different glass lense but all the same size for all 6cyl (just make sure it is a 6cyl bumper and not a 4cyl which has different fogs and a shallow air dam)

Yes the 1.9 L pre-facelift has a different front bumper to the facelift cars. The 2.8 has the same bumper as the facelift models.

Also the Sport grill is different. Though that only appears on the facelift cars.

Also 1.9/4-cylinder/narrow body pre-facelift has no side lamps on the front bumper.

That is certainly true of the earliest cars, but I think later prefacelift cars "grew" them, likely around late 1997 onwards?
