Default PF to FL conversion

People have said the final edition wheels have taken 10 years off the BAJIT. Now Jug is getting carried away and wants to do the full facelift front end modification. I believe that is wings, bonnet, front bumper and headlights.
Any pointers on this mod.

I've suggested just doing the bottom facelift bumper, there is a Matt black car on the German forum with a PF front end but a bottom FL bumper and I think it looks more aggressive and in your face then a facelift S8. Does anyone have any pictures of the German Matt black car? Would you post them please?

Thanks

Sure there's a thread on here with it.. Maybe Tyresmoke.. But yes, it's bumper, lights, wings and bonnet.

That is a full facelift bumper not just the lower section. The FL bumper comes in 2 parts whereas the PF one is in a single section.

A FL bumper fits straight onto a PF car, the only issue is that there is a gap between the bottom of the bonnet grill and the bumper about the depth of the chrome trim under the lights.
