Type44 Euro Front Bumper GP?

[Pasqualoni, James E]

Thanks Taka.  Here's where we stand:

For 86-90 5k/200, some listers have noted that the bumper will fit with
modification to the central cross-member.  If any of you have installed the
91 200 20v single-pass inter-cooler into your 86-90 5k/200 and changed over
the center cross-member, than the bumper will fit without modification.

The Euro bumpers will NOT fit 91 200q 20v cars.

If anyone has any additional experience/advice, please share your knowledge!

Thanks,
Jim

The auxiliary radiator underneath the intercooler needs the space available
in the US-spec bumper. This is why all of the euro 200q 20vs all had the
US-spec front bumper, from '89 to '91.

Note that you can't assume that a flared fender car is a 20v in Europe,
because they had stuff like the 100 sport with flared fenders and all-red
taillights (with the same center finisher as our 100s).
