    That would also mean the conversion is doable for a 7th gen bumper on an 8th gen.

    So does that mean a body kit for a 7th gen would fit an 8th gen? I found a place that was selling the Tom's kit for the 7th gens, but not 8th

    So you can put a 7th gen bumper on an 8th gen? Would you have to change the headlights too? I would get a 7th gen bumper if I didn't have to change the headlights

    these really look like they could use a swapped hood aswell. mayb it's just me, but i see some noticeable gap in there along the front....

    i was going to say the same thing i think if i really wanted to do it i would need



    lights, hood, front bumper,and side corners

    looking at prices it would be about 500 for parts and then 1000 to pant the whole car
