Been told the catera's front grill wont fit with out major mods the the bumper

I wonder if someone tried fitting a pre'lift grille to a facelift car? (Or t'other way round).
I'd find it hard to beleive that GM would change a bumper  and panelwork pressings to suit a plastic grille which costs them pennies to make/buy!

Got to remember different regs in the USA.I was told if i wanted to fit a catera grill i would need the bumper and slam panel 

Pretty sure all facelifts are the same, whether it be Omega or Catera? :-/

Have a look at a catera front bumper  then a omega bumper.
Yes they are the same type shell but the get it though usa law they had to modify some panels.When i worked at the Bentley factory the parts we had the change for the usa ran into hundreds of parts,bumpers,bumper hardware,lights etc
