This is an old thread! You can put an older bumper on a facelifted 440. I had to to be able to fit the bodykit bumper:

Before (original facelift bumper):


During swapover:


After Swap:


How it looks (with bodykit bumper):


The only thing that won't fit is the foglights. The facelift foglights are different, so won't fit the bumper or mountings. You could probably get them to fit with custom brackets, but i just changed them over. The older foglights are better anyway, as you can replace the glass if they crack-unlike the newer ones, which are sealed units.

It's the opposite here-i see loads of facelifted 440/460 in the breakers, but not any old ones!

Good luck,
Dan
