Arrow '07-'08 Front?

http://www.airsociety.net/wp-content...n-Bags-007.jpg

is this a 07-08 oem front? The lip seems to look slightly bigger than the ones i see on the regular. I have a 04 nbp and I want my front looking like this. I've read some threads stating that I would need to get a 07-08 front nose in order to get this appearance on my 04 TL, no aspec kit is compatible to do so. Im asking for further info before I go out and start looking for a front

^^^^yep that right.


If you want your 04-06 TL look like that then you will need to buy 07-08 TL Base front bumper, 07-08 TL grill, fog light and rewiring for into new fog light location also you need wiring for your DRL locate where 04-06 fog light housing used to be. Yes you can have 04-06 A-spec lip on a 07-08 bumper, it had been done before check out orange TL located in CT for the detail.

I stand corrected...swore I have an 08 Aspec lip kit...car isn't here right now so I can't compare...hmmm.

Just looked at the garage pictures of my car...guess that is an Aspec front tlip...I think the purple threw me off from my WDP?

No you don't need a new hood or new headlights. The car in the pic looks like it has TL-S headlights. They arnt a necessity to do the swap. You only need what everyone has said, 07/08 Base bumper w/ fogs, grills ,trim and 07/08 Base A-Spec Lip. Pretty sure the bumper will bolt right up to your 04 and you'll have to wire the fogs up. There are plenty of people here who have done this, search around a bit.
