Is there suppose to be a gap at the light? The inner corner of the headlight where it meets the bumpercover. It might be just the angle not sure.

I'm sure it's just a quick test fit... but thats there is not a gap. It's how the bumper is designed. It sticks out like that + the shadow makes it look like the gap.

After all the parts and labor, you need to invest well over $2G's. IMO just really not worth it if I had to pay out of my own pocket. If I had that kinda $$ to blow, I'd rather use that on other mods. After all the 07-09 front end is pretty sexy as is. However, if it was funded by an insurance company, I'd be all over it!

Painted pics NAO!

nice to know...I have a habit of getting into accidents anyway.

What needs to change on the bumper to compensate for the "radar" cruise?

The only thing I like about the new bumper is the huge center section for an intercooler
The 07-09 has a pretty small one and the 07-09 journey bumper has an even small section.

awesome work dude,

I've always thought about doing this myself but to be honest it was expensive enough for me to just fit the Sport bumper. Good job thought, loving the fogs too

Can you guys see how off the 2010 bumper is to the 07-08 headlight? From the looks of the pictures it looks like it can be easily modded to fit (trim and bondo).

Can you guys verify?
