you will need different lower grill trim. As the contours are different. Other then that everything should be fine.

definite CAN! but you will need the grill from the S, the chrome grill will not fit on the S bumper. and the rest will echo what Creeve said.

i m trying to source an used S front bumper, but not yet found.

good luck

Lower grille trim and possibly the S grille. eBay has them cheap all the time, especially in CR.

pepper white

if i cant find it, i may jump into the jcw front bumper($715 from out motoring shipped + $341 paint job from local body shop, and install it myself)
i feel like the local paint job is kinda expensive, does anyone know where i can get a cheaper and quality paint job in LA area? or the price i was quoted already reasonable?
