2000-2003 Prefacelift and facelift body kit interchangable?

[Legacyy]

I have a 2000 GTB and really like the E tune kit from facelift, will it fit? or facelift bumpers fit on a pre facelift legacy?

i think that the headlights are different so it doesnt fit well and you have to change bonnet as well. And i think that the frame needs to be modded somewhat

The headlights are a different shape between the two, but from memory that doesn\'t effect the bumper as the shape change more effects the bonnet and grill area. I have seen several swaps done before using the mismatched lights/bumper but have not done it myself, so cannot give you a 100% answer on that.

Swindog put a rev d bumper on his pre FL without the other bits and it fitted more or less right he reckoned (I think)

Ideally you need the headlights, bonnet, and front grille bit to have it all "right"

To me the different looking headlights are as much a part of updating it as the bumper is

On the pre facelift the balasts for the hids is a different shape to the facelift so it takes a bit of metal bending to get a good fit, the bit that sticks up beside the headlights on the bumper of a REV D is a different height to the earlier type, so the bits on the front edge of the bonnet are also a different length, Also the REV D headlights are actually wider than the earlier ones so if you fit later bonnet and bumper to earlier car you will have a gap but the other way around it just won\'t fit right.

so basically to make it fit right and look good you will need the following:

Headlights (Park/corner lamps are different so will need to change wiring to suit

Bonnet

Bumper

So hack off an arm and go for it.

what about the front lip of a face lift? will it fit the pre lift bumper? cause it looks the same other than the lip

Depends on the exact style, there are a few different ones, some are interchangeable some are not, it may just take a bit of messing around.
