Can it be done?

Even though it looks kinda expensive, I want to upgrade my 2010 RL grille to the one that is on the 2012. The dealerships I have called can not be totally sure. Can it be done.

Anything is possible with $$$. There isn't a whole lot of MMC presence here and way less modding experience.

Post something up if you get it done.

So you guys think that the parts will fit. They are inter-changeable?

Can you get dimensions from the dealership on the parts? I don't see why it won't swap out. But, then again, you can never be too sure.

I think the grill will fit as they very likely did not change the shape of the hood. Whether they are interchangeable or not is tough without both parts.

Have you looked at the parts diagrams on Oemacuraparts.com for both years?
