    Will Mk1 Escort bumpers fit a Mk1 Cortina?

    I can't seem to find any fibreglass (or Carbon fibre) bumpers for a Mk1 Cortina anywhere. Are the Escort Mk1 ones dimensionally the same or similar enough?

    I'm thinking the front quarter bumpers look identical. Rear looks similar too. If its just a case of relocating bolt holes that's no problem.

    Thanks for that. Those stainless steel bumpers do look good quality!

    Sorry - I should have been more clear about my reason for this thread. I want to fit lightweight GRP bumpers. I already have some Cortina original steel bumpers, which I suppose I could make moulds from, but it would be far easier to buy pre-made ones. If the Escort Mk1 ones are reasonably similar it would be great. I don't mind if the bolt holes need filling/re-drilling.

    Just need someone to give me rough dimensions of the Mk1 Escort bumpers and I can compare them to the Cortina ones I already have. Full length at the read and quarter bumpers at the front.
