Side rockers on the GT convertible are different to accommodate the added stiffening. Supersport rear bumper cover is wider and will require slight modification to interchange.
So the side rockers on the GTC up to 2011 is a different size and fitment side rocker ? Or is it just a stronger FRP material?
1. According to http://Supertweaks.com (super helpful folks from UK), SS front bumper will fit on 04 GT no problem
2. The gap seems to be pretty small. The newer grille seems to be more upright. I had to examine different pictures carefully to spot the exact difference between the older radiator assembly and the newer one. The new grille assembly runs about $2k + painting. I don't think it is worth it.
a) My car
b) Real SS
c) 05 GT with SS Bumper (courtesy of supertweaks.com); you'll notice a tiny gap
Yes, Id go lower chrome grills, I upgraded my previous Bentley and it transformed the car. Purched them from a UK grill specialist, they weren't expensive and the quality was 10/10.

Mind giving up the info for this grill specialist so I can check them out?
To anyone that did the facelift bumper, can you tell me if this is "normal" and if the speed bumper had the chrome headlamp trim? I never really noticed that space on the old bumper.
Thanks
Edit: I think I found my answer. Looks like I may order the chrome bezels if this bothers me enough.

Chrome trim rings would look good and you can get the lower grills painted in a chrome/clear. I believe the factory grill is chromed plastic. At least it looks like it.
Just got my xlcusive bumper and have yet to unwrap. Was a bit of a hassle and an unexpected $600 in fees out of pocket, to retrieve it from the port (on top of the 300 pounds shipping).
My body shop guy is telling me how difficult bentley bumpers are and so forth, so will have to line up a more honest one. Will post some pics.
