Hi, Ive had a look around but can't seem to find much information on this!! I have just resprayed and installed a new GT4 bumper to my pre facelift 94 GT!

The bumper looks amazing now and gave it a brand new T badge and looks bling!!!

But....During the install I could not work out what to do with the crash bar at the front of the radiator! The old one is too big to allow the GT4 bumper to sit around it and the GT4 one doesn't align with the bolts on the chassis!!! Also the GT4 foglights don't fit with the GT crash bar and vice versus...so basically im fudged!!!

The bumper is on, but I haven't got a crash bar or front GT4 fogs, which is a pain and a safety issue!!! I know that people have done this mod in the past so I jsut wanted to know how you overcame the problem? Is there something im missing or do you just have to leave the crash bar off?

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!!!

the crash bar is different for th gt4 bumper youve got two ways 1/buy a gt4 c/bar or 2/ cut your gt c/bar in half length ways to mod yours and that will fit then smile.gif

Ive got the reinforcement bar from a GT4, the fogs and brackets! Is there some kind of converter bracket that bolts onto the two chassis mounts to convert between a GT and GT4?

See pics attached?

Cheers
