Does a Facelift Grill fit o.k onto a pre-facelift ?
 
As title, really, i know the facelift has different headlights but will the grill from a facelift fit a pre-facelift o.k/well enough around the lights etc, not too bothered about a few mm here n there difference

anyone ?

cheers

when i facelifted my old wrx the new grill would not fit round the old lights i think. or there was a big gap, hope this helps.

Your going to have to change the headlights over if you want to have a facelift grill mate. My brother did it to his old wrx ra, the prefacelift bonnet can stay tho, but theres going to be a little gap between the headlights and the bonnet.

My car with face lift grill and crystal lights , yes it does fit although the bonnet safety catch is a tight squeeze if you have fat fingers
