Bumper upgrade, few shortcomings.

Hello everyone!
I'm currently in the middle of upgrading my front bumper. I bought a car with this one:



and I want to have one exactly like this



New bumper is already complete, painted and ready to put on, but after first attempt I find out that three elements won't fit the new bumper.

- two little plastic holders on both sides, there suppose to hold bottom engine cover, A2128852365 was on one side, I don't have the other side number



- and the number plate inner liner, I have A2128852765




Does anyone have some experience witch the issue? I hope I only need part numbers for those three elements and I don't need to change anything else. Can someone help?

I am on my phone so I can't lookup where you are from but if you got a vin number with the correct bumper you could figure out what you needed using EPC. It's free for us here in the USA.

I don't have any input on the bumper issue but I'll buy your European front plate holder if you are willing to sell!

I'm from Norway and here nothing is free I found EPC on some Russian server but the picture I'm interested in can't be loaded. Is is possible to find out for me? WDD2120051A488954
