I'm looking at a JDM Grille (that fits the BL5/BP5 Legacy 2.0i, 2.0GT or 2.0R). Apparently it doesn't fit the USDM model.

I'm trying to work out if it would fit the AUDM 2.5GT? Looks like it would fit visually...?

It'll depend what BL/BP5 it is from. All the JDM Legacys are 2.0 so that's no help unfortunately. You'll need to find a grill from a BL/BP5 D-F to fit your car if it's a 2.5. USDM bumpers are completely different to JDM/AUDM due to impact requirements I think. They look like the car has a fat lip.

No it won't fit... it will come up a bit short on the post face cars... I encountered that problem when I swapped my bumper on my old car to the preface 3.0 front bar, tried to fit my standard grille (I had a 2.0R at the time) and it came up short... there was a gap of about half an inch on the bottom between the bottom of the grille and the bumper. I solved it with a post face grille. So because you are going the reverse order to what I did, I can tell you anything that will fit a 2.0GT, 2.0R won't fit.

Ah bugger, well if anyone wants a nice looking grille - I think this is a good price, even with postage factored in...

(So it would fit a pre-facelift, correct?)

JDM BP/BL5 D-F, Post Facelift to you guys, were still 2.0l where AUDM was 2.5l. Daniel is correct in saying that the pre to post facelift grills aren't compatible but a JDM 2.0GT/GT Spec B D-F grill will fit on a AUDM Post Facelift 2.5 GT/GT Spec B as JDM A-C will fit on Pre Facelift.

All that said based on that part number it is an A-C Pre Facelift grill so yes it won't fit
