could the nudge bar/a bar from a 2004 face lift model fit a 2002 model?

i can find 2004 onwards for very little money but i cant seem to find the ones that were fitted to earlier models

by the way im on about the plastic/pre painted not the chrome type
 
At a guess I'd say no. The facelift nudge bars are specifiaclly shaped to fit over the grill section of the bumber. Even if you did I reckon it would look naff as feck, but that's JMO.
 
Just had a look on ebay, if you search "Freelander Nudge Bar" you'll get quite a few of the metal bars up for auction or sale.
 
I've just swapped the grey nudge bar for a black one on my 2005 TD4. It was only on for a few years and started to look tatty and sh*t.
Pretty certain you couldn't fit one to a non facelift and TBH if I hadn't drilled the front bumper to fit wouldn't bother fitting a new one. Got the black one for £30 brand new from eBay - looks good for now.

Yep once you've fitted it that's it for the bumber, no going back. I've got a black one too I reckon it looks nice with the light guards.

i quite like the plastic ones, plus the metal bars are a bit on the expensive side:rolleyes:

im trying to get a cheap set of roof rails aswell

hoping to pick up a set of triple sport 17"s at the end of the month for £75
 
You could always fit facelifted bumpers :). Well worth it IMO.

nice idea, but cost is a big thing for me, and i like the look of it as it is, there are just a couple of things i would like to add, to make it "my own"
im fortunate it already has the colour coded body kit...i spent 3mth looking for a good one

Ahhh they do look good with the coloured bumpers!

the bumpers arn't coded unfortunatly but the kit that goes from front to back and over the arches are....not sure but it might be the same kit as the anniversary model..but mines on a 52 plate

When I bought my nudge bar it was for my model (2000) but the instructions wer for the facelift model I think it would be the same bar just different fittings that bolt to the bumper reinforcer I'll try and find the thread for my nudge bar now
