I'm pretty sure it would be a straight swap. Look great, but would be a real issue with gutters and steep driveways and the like.  :undecided:

I'd go to a wreckers with paper,  pencil and a tape ,  measure and compare.
Even call a few panel shops to see if they have a dead gd one around the place.
Keep us posted  👍

I don't think you would have a height issue, you can see the car in the picture is radically lowered plus the bumper also has an extra lower lip attached.

The only extra you might require is a different foam impact bar, you'll possibly get away with it though and hopefully a straight swap :Good_luck:

a dead gd one

Would a GD front panel fit an FD? :confused:

Nope, I think mickd might have made a typo.

Right you are 👍,  sorry for any confusion.  Some days I have 💩 for brains.   :head_knock:
