Default Parts needed for F-Sport Conversion [Pre-facelift]?

Hi Guys,

Just double checking the parts needed to convert a luxury pack to an F-Sport for the pre-facelift GS (13-15):

- Inner-piece of the front grille (the emblem and chrome surround can be used from the old grille)
- Lower mesh grille
- F-Sport front bumper
- Foglight surrounds

Anything else that's required? Thanks

- F Sport bottom grill Bezels as you mentioned (Fog light Bezels - if keeping fogs)
- F Sport Tow Cap (Luxury bumper tow cap won't fit)
- make sure to get the F Sport bumper that supports all of your extra holes if necessary (i.e. - headlight washers, sensors)
Everything else is plug and play - good luck! I did the conversion and am super pleased!

JW, did you have to custom paint the bumper to match your car? If yes, how much was the paint?

Yeah I had to get the shop to order the Starfire Pearl (077) to match and they then blended the fenders as well. I also used jet black paint for the middle instead of wrapping it. The shop ordered the paint and included it into the total invoice (shich I don't have on hand at the moment) so I'm not sure the actual cost for just that.
