springs will fit, but they'll be the wrong weight - the touring is heavier (and designed to take heavy loads) at the rear
as for the mtec rear bumper - yes get it fitted

the bumper will fit, as long as both cars are facelift (plastic bumper) types. (m-tech 2)
the springs are body style and engine size specific.
tourings and cabs have the same (or as near as dammit) rear springs. saloons have softer ones. this is due to the extra weight at the rear on the touring / cab variants
similar applies to the front springs. 4 pot springs are softer that 6 pot springs.
they will all 'fit' on but you wil have ride heights and spring rates all over the place
