I think it should be a 2 piece bumper, with a separate splitter

It's a shoite picture, I know, but the only one of mine I have to hand

The one Lewis posted is definately a GTE one, the early novas had the bumper yours has conza, the ones without the grab handle boot (as a rule of thumb) whereas the later mk1's had a bumper which was basically the GTE one, minus the lower lip, as you can fit the GTE lip to a late mk1 bumper (if you cut the slots out that is)

Hope that helps somewhat, but as the 'sport' boys seem to love and hoard the earlier stuff, things like the bumper dont come up too often, and when they do mr Sillet usually manages to get his mits on them and they dissappear into his loft, never to be seen again lol

really? aw, thought it was still SR. so all my SR needs to be a GTE is the stickers :( (which I have)
