Agree on the rear Spolier brake light. Much cooler.

Funny- after looking at rear badges I ordered the small silver HSE badge so will probably go with this.

Nightmare on the headlights. Have they said what the issues are?

Hi, welcome. Yes, dynamic bumper will be a straight swop for your current. Do you currently have fogs. If you didn't have fogs you'd either have to leave them as dummies or look into if the wiring loom to see is there a retro fit for the fogs. If you can post a pic of your current bumper set up I could give a more accurate answer.

The guy is an idiot... spends too much time holidaying through Europe on your money (as seen by his Social Media!) than he does in his workshop sorting out lights... Its been nearly 3 months with stories of 'its almost done'.... I'm so tempted to just get the Italian Mafia on him as i have killed for less......... Twisted Evil

Hi nickj thanks for your reply yes I do have fog lights. I'll send you a pic a like u said hopefull a straight swap. Is it a straight swap with the dynamic rear bumper as well?

This is my bumper.

Can't send pic but my front parking sensors are in the black plastic not the paintwork

RE: 2016 facelift conversion. - Nickj - 03-09-2017 07:36pm

Can't see pic, but if you have fogs should be straight swop. Regardless of where the parking sensors are in theory they would slot into the new bumper.

Can't help on rear bumper as never done it but should imagine a straights swop. Sure there will be a thread on here somewhere.

Hi Nick,

So RD Custom just posted a Youtube Video of my Headlights today and have assured me I can have them back next week. No external boxes though, they have managed to fit everything inside the lights themselves....

Feeling better about it but now sure mine were the guinea pigs that took sooooo long for them to figure it out on...

RE: 2016 facelift conversion. - Nickj - 08-09-2017 07:50pm

Vid looks awesome. Looks a lot of work! I was keen not to split the headlight so hopefully it will all go back together as new. They will look great once fitted. Happy it's nearly sorted!

Had my rear brake pads changed today, so took the opportunity to apply some brembo decals to my freshly painted calipers. Bit sad I know but hey makes me happy!

Fronts

Rears,

does the facelift fit straight on or does it require headlights / bumper ?
love the brakes looks great
