ok so i had a minor accident.. needless to say i scraped up my front bumper im taking it to the shop Tuesday

insurance is paying

i was wondering since its probably gonna need to be replaced is it possible to fit an 08 TL-S front bumper on an 06 TL i know it has fogs so i dont know if everything will work or what

and while i was at it has any1 replaced stock 06 TL exhuast with 08 TL-S exhuast im guessing i will probably have to replace back bumper bcuz it doesnt look like the Type S exhuast will fit out of the stock opening

Thanx in advance for any advice or replies

 

Yes you will have to get a new bumper the tips wont fit in the stock cut outs.

 

if you get the TL-S bumper, you will need a new center grille piece, new bumper, new lower grilles, the fog light cases, light and then wire harnesses. For the rear all you need is the TL-S a-spec rear and you can cut up the stock bumper. Thats only if you car is the same color, and judging by the avatar, it won't work since there was no redondo red for 07+ if memory serves me correctly.

 

would it be possible to get the TL-S a-spec rear primed and then have it painted RRP

 

no, it comes pre-painted from the manuf. My personal opinion of it is to get a TL-S bumper if the rest of the car does not have the A-spec kit. If it does have the kit, then get Morrocan red TL-S kit, it has red so there will be less of a color alteration, like white will make it appear lighter, black darker, etc. and then get that painted RRP

 

Thats a great idea i think ill do that thanx

 

i have this same question too, well now i know it wont fit as a simple bolt on. what about a base 07+ tl bumper will it fit on my 05? i dont mean to thread jack here but i really need help, i have more than 5 posts and have been a member for over 15 days but i still cant do new threads. thanks anyways if anybody can help me.
