Turn signals integrated into the bumper would indicate Euro bumpers 
(all years had integrated turn signals outside of NA, under-bumper 
turn signals in NA).

My attempt to clean it just stirred up more dirt and made it look dirtier.

Brembo front calipers were officially stock on pre-'84 GTV6s, but in 
my experience, about 1 in 5 later GTV6s and 1 in 3 early Milanos came 
with the Brembos.
