Bumper, grille, headlights, fog lights, windshield washer tank, and some little pieces. Fenders and hood is the same.

That's about right, we managed to do it for about $3200 including new parts/labor/paint.

No 2010 don't come with tech package. There is no room for the projectors to turn.

If the 2010 projector shrouds are retro-fitted into 07-09, the AFS which will no longer work

hey diesel, i just got into an accident where i need to replace almost the whole front clip; hood, bumper, front fenders, passenger headlight, windshield washer tank, passenger fender liner, etc.

I'm hoping my auto repair shop can do the fix. was it really a bolt on? did the fog lights connect right up too? if so, to what? you mention little pieces above, can you be more specific? Would you mind telling me everything that is needed as I'm hoping the repair shop would be willing to do this.
