Are the rear bumper fittings same for pre and post 07?

Postby Mo_GT » Thu Oct 11, 2012 11:00 am

Hi All,
Does anyone know if the rear bumper fittings for the pre facelift and post face lift (07) sedan is the same?

That is, will a 07 rear bumper skin fit on a 05 as long as the rear lights were changed also? And vice versa?

I have a little project in mind and need to know if the bumpers can be interchanged between the 05 and 07 sedans.


Thanks,
Mo

if you change the taillights, you should be able to swap the rear bar

send dr20t a message, he recently did this so he should be able to give you some light on the subject

I ve done this conversion. The MY05 bumper fittings (below the tail lights) are different as the 07 brackets below the tail lights hold the bumper and the tail lights with the chrome garnish clip on to it. Make sure you buy these 2 brackets when buying bumper and tail lights. Prefacelift Pic Shown below...hope it helps..
