Bumper, Bonet, Lights, Grill

[Leno]

I understand that the bumper bar of a Exec is not interchangeable with a SS without also changing other parts such as lights and grill. I have a Berlina VY series 1 and want to know the following.

1. Do I have to change the lights and or the grill if I want to change the bumper to a SS bumper. Do any other parts also require to be changeed. As I have a chrome border around my grill I was hoping to keep the existing grill, yet I like the SS bumper.

2. Are the Exec, SS, Berlina, Manaro bonets all the same? If not, which ones are interchangeable with the Berlina?

3. What other models can the grills or lights be interchanged with the Berlina?

4. Has anyone tried one of the fibreglass bonets as seen on ebay? The ones with the vents at the front. Are they easy to fit? Are they ok (Do they vibrate etc)?

Thanks.

Leno.

You don't need to change your lights, but the centre grill will need to be changed to the SS one if you put the SS bumper on as the executive grill doesn't fit. Not sure about the berlina grill. The lights are the same shape / size so they shouldn't need changing.

Fibreglass bonnets I think maybe illegal, not sure about that though, maybe someone will be able to confirm.

You should be able to fit SS headlight, SS Bumper to a berlina.

Umm, he would need to change his headlights because the SS bumper has the little cut-outs for the teardrop headlights. Calais doesn't have the teardrop headlights so it would look funny. It might physically fit, but would look weird IMO.

from what i know the front bumpers on the exec, acclaim, s and ss are all interchangeable except for the grills. For you to install an ss bumper you would need to change grill and lights, the bonnet wouldn't be affected.
