Spotted this for sale in Norway. It's a 2006 with facelift bumper and hood, but pre-facelift headlights. Thought i'd share. Anyone on here done this?

are they a straight fit ?

I always wondered if this was a simple swap or not, the FL grill definitely is but wouldn't sit right on the pre-FL bumper due to a slightly different lower profile, it would fit it just wouldn't look right.

Assuming the FL bumper is a straight swap (which I see no reason why it wouldn't) this would be any easy DIY.

Of course you could always go one further and swap the front wings and headlights then you'd have the complete front end

Personally I'm not a fan of the look in the opening post but hat's off to the guy for the effort

I think it looks good actually. Good on him for doing it. Just needs to rectify his interior and wheel fitment now.

+1 looks good, but interior is naff and the wheels are not to my taste.

Yeah on the inside just looks like he's left blue tinted strippable film on the plastic bits

I really like that!

that looks really good

I really like that , I Wish I had been brave enough to have bought a Facelift bumper when I changed mine as I much prefer that to the pre facelift

Looks amazing IMO.

Would love to see how this was achieved - can't be that hard can it?

Good on the guy - I think it looks bloody nice but I have the feeling it's not quite a straight fit.

What in God's name is going on with the interior? A classic case of "just because you can, doesn't mean you should"!

The FL is a big improvement so why ?

I'd do this. I'm not in a position to change cars but want the updated look. This is the best of both worlds as I'm not keen on the FL's headlights. Well done to him I say!
