Reading the original auction it was geared towards the bumper bar. If you had bid BEFORE he changed it, you would for sure have a reason to back out through Ebay. But if you bid after he added the info, then Ebay would most likely deem that you read the auction at the moment the bid was submitted.
But according to their seller info: http://pages.ebay.com/help/sell/questions/revise-item.html#auction_style
His additional info was not "adding" to the description, it was totally changing the main part of the auction. He went on an on about the bumper bar in the description. It was the main part of the auction when he described it as "EXTREMELY RARE AND HARD TO FIND!!" More than half of the description is about the bumper bar, along with the reason for the expensive postage "it is large and the bar is heavy."
If he does not agree to send everything, you certainly have some standing to at least argue with Ebay based on the "adding to the description" definition. Removing 1/2 of the items for auction is not "adding".
Also, did you have it saved on your Favorites? Did Ebay send you a reminder to "not let it get away"? You could always argue that you read the listing days ago (thus the saved favorite) and when you got the reminder, you just placed a bid without reading the auction again.
Good luck on getting what you were bidding on.
