Question Would a MY03 - 04 rear WRX bumber fit a MY01-02 WRX

As the title, anyone know?

I know that the lights invade part of the bumper on MY03 and not on the MY01 so i spose you would have to swap the rear light clusters also

Hi Nick

I'm still working on the missus but she's fell out with me. Give me a ring when you get a chance

I had / have an opportunity to get a blue MY04 bumper but that would mean i'd have to buy the rear light clusters. Not many peeps want to sell the rear lamp clusters and then theres the problem of of the block bulb holders

So may turn out rather expensive

I thought the only difference between our bumper and the 03/04 is the little indents as you say for the rear lights.Is it not a cheaper option to buy some lexus style lights for the 03/04 model if you're adamant you want the new style bumper? (Or have a word with someone like Grade A to see if they have any crash damaged cars)
Will try and call you on Friday

Okay mate no worries

It was just a thought as the bumper was available but no-one really wants to sell their MY03 lights as they're ikay ......... and better than chav lights

what about filling the light cutouts in the bumper so you can keep your lights?
