By the looks of your car, the bumper looks in on one side? And you have atleast one broken light that will fail MOT.

trust me.. there is a difference in the catch on the landing panel. the catch is slighty too far to the left of the hole.

ive swopped tons of pre and post 97 bonnets over theres no difference in them, you must have been hit with a cheap replica panel, id take it at most a wee bit of elbow grease to get it as shiney as your car but it will go on

If you mix and match then the gap between where the bonnet and the bmper meet can be different...thats what's happened in the case of mine anyway...

I wouldn't worry about the colour difference tbh. The bonnet is the easiest part of the car to t-cut and polish as it's flat etc.

they do fit just need lined up on the catch and adjusted to fit perfectly aligned.

get it bought, cheaper than re-pairing yours.

Before anything on the front got touched.






Looking closer at the pics though mate i think it just might be the bad boy bonnet i have tbh the more i look at the pics the more it makes sense, so you should be fine with using the pre facelift on your facelift.
