Just by coincidence I saw one of rhe suspect Beemers in the parking lot tonight, so I looked it over with your conversion in mind. It seems to me that the original Beemer black top filler is a bit wider that the original Alfa top filler. If you make this conversion and can somehow make use of the Beemer top filler as well, I have a suspicion that the Beemer top filler as applied to the Alfa would overlap the top of the bumper more than it does the on the Beemer. If this is correct, it would mitigate somewhat for the extra width of the top of the bumper. It would still be the same width, but you woud see less of it and this would give the optical illusion that the bumper is thinner that it actually is. Might solve the width problem you mentioned. Or is the width problem you mentioned up and down width, not accross the top width?
