would LCI bumpers fit pre LCI?

slim chance but someone might know. since the LCI taillights fit on a pre LCI, i wonder if the bumpers would too. my 09 bumper got in a small fender bender so this could be an opportunity to "upgrade"

I was also looking into this. It seems like u need to replace the rear 3/4 panel too, this is the piece right behind the rear wheels and above the bumper when looking at it from the side. It's looks like it can be done, but I wonder what the cost would be. Let me know how u make out. I was even looking to paint the black rear bumper to resemble the lci style. (paint it all the same as body color except leave a strip in the middle lower part black like a diffuser, if anyone is good at photoshopping this, I would love to see how it looks)

The fogs aren't the problem. Its the difference in fenders that's the problem.

The Pre-LCI fender and LCI fender are different and cost ~800 ea/ at the best price online. Plus the cost of the front bumper cover also.
