Perhaps this question has been asked before but is it possible from this

to this

                                       (FL bumper)

does it perfectly fit or it requires some sort of conversion?

Thanks in advance

yes it will fit, ive seen it done before - search the forum im sure I saw someone on here do it

It might look odd with the black bump strips going all around the car but not on the rear bumper.  I could be wrong and it might look fine.  I guess the side ones could be removed to uncover some horror beneath but unsure what you'd do about the front ones unless you facelift the front too but that's a totally different job altogether.

 

Edit to say a pre FL VRS front bumper may fit and that didn't have the bump strips.  I know the fog lights are different but no idea what else may be slightly different.

a good point, I didn't think of the bump strips.  Only thing I could think of would be to remove them and have them colour coded

You do have a point, but i don't mind, at least not for now.

My main concern is the rear bumper.
