Need Advice - 2010 to 2011+ Front Bumper Conversion
Hey all, recently I got some curb damage on the driver’s side of my bumper (see picture) and I decided I may just do the front end conversion from the 09-10 bumper to the 11-13 F-Sport front end earlier than originally planned. Does anyone know which parts are absolutely required for the conversion, and any vendors that may still have the parts for sale? My budget is ~$1500, not including paint work and I’ll have to get a quote from a local body shop to paint match the bumper to Truffle Mica.
The car is not equipped with AFS or headlight wipers or any type of parking assist.
The 2011 conversion is the only exterior mod that I would want. Well, headlights would be nice but at $1,000 used...would probably go aftermarket.
Would you mind sharing the part numbers? What's the total come to?
I don't know if you're going for a new bumper cover, but you can find them used for $300+/-
Thread started on BEAN/MPX communications to override the stalk control and turn fogs on with running lights or headlights. Fog Light Override via BEAN MPX protocol

Anyone know the switch hack to enable the fog lights without having the headlights on?

As usual, phone does the color no justice. But both are 55000k now.
If anyone does this the white black wire is ground as you assemble the connector yourself.

Halogens still have the Osram H11's in them.

As for price, it seems that ~$1700 is gonna be the total if I order everything from a dealer/parts center. In order to save some money I’ll be buying the front spoilers and fogs aftermarket (OEM fogs are over $100 a piece). May or may not also buy the 2011+ brake ducts since they are a bit longer and will cover any gaps, but money doesnt grow on trees
Also, going new for the bumper cover since truffle mica only came for 09-10 cars. Costs $325 for pickup from the closest dealership.
