    Would someone who is confident in the history of the Dino be kind enough to post photos of the nose clips from various years/series for comparison?

    I'm referring to the view from in front of the car, especially the part below the bumpers.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi there,
    There were only two different shaped front clips. Matthias will probably know the car number where the change took place.You should be able to find photos of these in any good Dino literature. The early front also has the bumpers that wrap around into the grille.The later front had the bumpers ending level with the end of the grille with no wrap around. Hope this helps.
    Cheers,
    John.

    There are actually 4 different shapes:
    206 GT
    L-, M-, very early E-Series.
    mid E-Series
    late E-Series (round air intakes, from body no. 1112)
    Regards Matthias
