Default Roewe indicator/driving lights fitted to R75 Facelift bumper.

Hi all, I've had a look through the Forum but can't find any mention of whether the Roewe combined indicator and driving light units can be fitted straight into a non-premium Rover 75 Facelift front bumper.
Maybe somebody on here could tell me for definite if it's possible?

They won't fit.
They're much longer top/bottom than standard indicators as shown in this old Radioguy photo.



The V8/Premium/Roewe 750 bumpers have longer holes for the indicator/fog/DRL/etc lamps


EDIT: The headlamp surrounds are designed for the Roewe which had lamps of a different size/depth. For a 75, you need the roll of draught excluder (as was supplied with the bumpers) to fill the gaps.

You are so local to me, I wonder what it would look like on my cinnamon saloon.

Foul in all likelihood, and remember the steel rule to open the bonnet Ian.

These are knockoffs of a Chinese knockoff, and don't fit very well at all

A friend who I purchased some parts from who isn't on here has one of these bumpers but is missing one of the indicators. Does anyone have one?
