04 tl with 08 type-s front bumper

Does anyone have an idea if the regular 07-08 tl front under body spoiler fits into the 07-08 tls front bumper ? Dont know if anyones in my situation but i have a 04 tl with an 08 tls front bumper with oem fogs. I am thinking of getting front under body spoiler but not sure if the regular 07-08 will fit into the 07-08 tls bumpers...any suggestion ?

Yes sir, I was in your situation. First thing is did you search? I did, but asked questions too. It never hurts to ask around, you get more information sometimes this way. But I know the BASE TL front spoiler will need to be modified to be used in conjunction with a Type S bumper...Search it up, there is a white TLS on here that has this mod. Looks EXCELLENT! I went with a Genuine Base 07 front bumper and Base spoiler, the only diff between a TL-S fornt bumper and base is the foglight area is shaped differently...If that helps

This mod is very pricey.

Also you need to buy the bumper, lip, fog lights, headlights, grille, clips, etc.

Look into it and figure EVERYTHING out before you do this so that you aren't blindsided by anything.

what did you have to do to make it fit? does the 2007 bumper fit exactly or is there mods to be done?

I want to instal a 2007 type s bumper onto my 2005.
also I will instal the Aspec lip.
