Sorry I forgot about this idea!
The model I was given ended up not being a PR.9 and I had a buccaneer nose spare in the spares box so I attached that.
If I remember I'll put pics of her on but she won't be complete for a long time as I haven't got decals for her yet.

Just as an aside. That black Canberra when it was delivered to Newark had a small playboy bunny badge on the port side of the radar nose. This was about six inches in hight so if you are modelling this one as delivered to the museum, that will need to be added. It also didn't have the spray equipment but still had the attachment point mid way under the rear fuselage. It also had patches where it had been used for battle damage repair training and I think it may have spent a little time as a range target too. If my now ex had not sold my computer when we split I would have had loads of walk round photos of this one.
Hope this helps.

All the best.
