Another way to tell if the facelift grills fit the pre-facelift models is...to pull up the hood diagram and see if both models have the same 11 digit part nbr for the hood. If they do, then that means the openings for the grill are the same, and only the design of the kidney grills are different.

Since the answer has already been given, I bet when you look up the hood's part nbr...there will be TWO different part nbrs...or a specific date given in the TO/FROM column indicating there's a difference. But if it's like the e39 & e38 models where the hood is the same throughout the production run (only 1 part nbr except for the early 750iL which had a steel hood or aluminum hood option), the kidney grill design changed but you can mount either style grill in the openings.
