I do not wish to open the old debate about which look better, that has been done to death. I have decided to look at changing my 2004 plus 4, from overiders to full width bumpers. So -
Is any body out there with a similar car looking to do the opposite and change their bumpers to overiders and interested in a swap deal?
Or has anybody got any bumpers/brackets etc they wish to sell?
Or, has anyone done this conversion got any hints or problems they encountered? Having looked at it in some detail it is perhaps not quite as straight forward as one might think, but is not that difficult.

Pete , I remember being at Tudor Motor Bodies when Kevin was doing the change to overriders and said it was expensive and a bit of a pain but doable. Good luck.

In my opinion, the modern overriders are bulbous and clumsy so I prefer both early chrome and later aluminium bumpers.

There was a period when you got a full front bumper and over-riders at the rear without a bumper.

I don't like full bumpers, they look to me like an afterthought, and I don't like no bumpers because Morgans look naked without.

So - Over-riders for me..............
