What all would I need to change if i wanted to put a 06+ bumper on my 05?

I tried doing a search but didn't come up with much, so im not sure if a thread was already made, if yes, sorry could you please link me, Thanks!

 

hmm.. i'm guessing bumper, grill, and maybe hood since the 05 has the chrome trim? and the headlights might actually be a different fitment..overall prob not worth it, just my opinion

 

um..

guessing here...

bumper
hood
grille
radiator cover
fog light wiring
fog light switch inside

headlights should be the same
but the ballasts are different on them.
so.. I don't think that matters here anyway.
the lights themselves will fit, they're the same.
but maybe the ballasts are different for a reason.
so that's worth looking into.


buying individual parts will get expensive.
it would be best to get one from a junk car...

 

Front bumpers are interchangeable while the rears aren't (at least without some modifications from what I have read here on azine). You can still have the 04-05 bumper and put on a front 06-08 front bumper. You will need a new radiator cover and obviously a new grille. The foglights I am not sure about though.

 

Thanks for the quick replys, looks like I won't be doing this anytime soon! too much work..

 

So anyone know for sure if it's possible to successfully put an '06 rear bumper on an '04?

 

my friend d0000d did it. he also got a cf hood now too. he doesnt have the fogs tho. and he actually did keep his 05 headlights i believe..

 

 

Should be fine. I don't think it would be worth it though as Ive never even noticed a difference

 

Yeah...def. won't be a noticeable difference, but I ultimately want an 06+ Aspec rear lip and supposedly it doesn't fit right on 04-05 rear bumpers. So I figure swap out my stock 04 bumper for an 06, then grab the lip I want.
