Default Rover 75 tourer rear bumper Mk1 and Mk2

Are the rear bumpers on a pre facelift and a facelift 75 tourer the same or different?
If they are different will a Mk1 fit onto a Mk2 OK? I am not worried about minor visual differences as Mk1 bumpers are easier to get hold of.
Many thanks.

Many thanks Mick. I am not too worried about subtle differences on a 13 year old car.
I have added to the PM I sent last week.

To get a Mk2 bumper to look right on a Mk1..... you want to have the trim that sits on the bottom edge of the tailgate too.

Again..... a straight swap

You are strictly correct though it is a daily driver rather than a show car.
At the moment it is looking slightly worse for wear after a women reversed into me in an almost empty car park. I gather Mk2 bumpers are hard to come by which is why I was asking the question.
