No i dont live in birmingham
I live in stockton

I do have a 90s convertible even though it had facelift sides and front the rear is still prefacelift
I was thinking of cutting the lower rear valance off a facelift car anf welding it in mine so the bumper fits and i still have the preface lights as i prefer them
Would this work if i cut from the arch all the way round and welded it on

Here's how you do it:

As you can see, it's a massive bodge that never looks right.
