05 to 07 front bumper conversion, quick question
05 to 07 front bumper conversion, quick question
Ive been searching forever and looking at pictures but I cant find out for sure what parts I need in order to do a 05 to 07 bumper conversion. I dont have anywhere to keep the bumper cause I live in the barracks on base, so I have to do it all at once...
Heres what I think I need, but I just want to be sure before I order everything so I can be sure I have it all when Im ready to put it on:
I got this from looking at this diagram-- delray acura link
#1- Front bumper- 04711-SEP-A70ZZ ($219.49)
#'s 49,51- Mesh grilles- 71107-SEP-A20ZA and 71102-SEP-A20ZA ($15.60 each)
#'s 53,54- Chrome trim peices- 71121-SEP-A20ZA and 71126-SEP-A20ZA ($13.75 each)
and heres the grille stuff I need (I think):
grille parts
I know I need #1 but theres no part # ????wtf (there is for the 05 though but its gotta be different)
#4- chrome lower molding-75125-SEP-A20ZA ($22.20)
#11- plastic mesh backing- 71120-SEP-A10ZA (11.64)
#6- middle grille part, chrome- 75705-SEP-A20ZA ($74.68)
#5- "A" emblem- 75700-SEP-A00 ($8.51)
Is it really that much different at all? It looks exactly the same in the diagrams, just the 07s have foglights. Could I just buy the foglight trim like the 07 has and put it in the 05 bumper openings? Is the center grille the only other difference?
These are the diagrams for the 05 bumper and grille:

You can also call up the parts dept or talk to Tim (vendor) to make sure you're getting the right parts.
You need to decide if you want 07-08 Type-S, or 07-08 Base. TL-S has the darkened chrome accent trims, the Base has satin silver accent trims. If you want everything to match & fit, or if you want the A-Spec lip, you need to keep everything the same. The TL-S also has the chrome hood trim.
Keep in mind the bumpers come primed, and not painted. You'll need to get it paint matched to your fenders.
If you buy the 07-08 center cross bar, for the upper middle grille, it comes with the 07-08 emblem.
The lower side grilles come with the satin silver accent trim (Base), if you buy new OEM.

Bumper
Middle grille parts (V shape outline trim, cross bar, honey comb backing if needed)
LT & RT Lower side grilles
LT & RT fog housings
bulbs, H8
