I'd never go EF XR to EL XR. I agree the EF front looks heaps better. But, whatever floats ya boat eh!! :lol:

If ya need a documented 'how to', just holla!

The XR bits are not part of the main bumper are they? I dont have to cut it off or anything like that? I know you cut your GLi bumper but they are a once piece solid.
Should be just a straight swap over?

Cheers

You serious? Mine looks like the top part of the bumper is seperate. That means I have to get a whole new front bar. Damn.

No, you don't need a new front bar.

Essentially, all you need to do is make a cut where the join is, then stick the other one on! :P

Of course there's more into it than that, but ya get me!

Our front bar never once left the car during the conversion.

I'd rather not butcher anything. If a cut needs to be made I'd rather just get an EL XR complete front bar and fit that.
Cheers for the info Amber.
