besides the lights do you think they will add the intelligent key system to the coupes now? And change our ugly key fobs?

Minor light changes. I plan to replace my orange signal light with a clear one sometime soon like those anyway. They should start including clear corners with these cars though stock!

I cant really tell or not, but I think those rims look different than the current double 5 spokes..

probably not too bad....as long as the housing for the projectors clear the core support and apron....the bumper has to come off to access mount points...and the HID bulbs will need to be changed to d2s instead of d2r I believe...

Those deifnitely appear to be adaptive headlights, the ones that look into your turns. Also, those are the same 19" wheels the 05s have.

They changed the headlights from just the bulb to a projector setup.

It has a projector lamp for the lowbeam. Also, the openings are shaped a little different. I am pretty sure it would be an easy plug and play replacement for 03-05 coupes. However, I am also sure you are looking close to $2000 to buy OEM headlights like these. If they have auto leveling projectors it will be more and the retro might not be as easy (Since you most likely have to interface the ECU) Just for comparison 03-05 headlights currently run around $750 each without bulbs/ballasts.

I am going to start a retrofit project using Valeo projectors and modifying the stock bulbs. I should have it complete in a few weeks and will post a DIY if all goes well it should only cost me around $180 to do this project.

It has HID projectors now. The high beam/foglight part is slightly smaller. The turn signal part is slightly larger and doesnt seem to have an amber lens anymore
