Yup, just missing a badge.

Also it says it came off a merit, which were pre97's.

I'll be keeping both so I can swap em back if I don't like lol, was going to keep the post 97 colour coded rear and colour code the pre 97 front as per how it is now.

They look deeper at the front than a post 97

If you wait about a week, you can have my front bumper

Lad I've just sold it to is scrapping the shell, said I can have whatever off it, once he's nabbed the engine out of it.
