Re: Did European 200s use US-spec bumpers?

["Jouko Haapanen" <joukoh@vtoy.fi>]

Aleksander,

The 200q 20V cars had the US style bumpers, but, if I recall correctly they
did not have the US spec impact protection underneath (read lighter..).
Those cars as we all know had the V8-style flared fenders as well.  I
believe the turn signal lenses in these were orange.  For 3B engined cars,
the turn signal lenses are 443 953 055 A (left) and 443 953 056 A (right).
Maybe one of our US listers with fiche can cross-check these numbers if
indeed they will fir your car...
