Guys little help pls.. I found a bumper without fog lights. I was wondering is this completely different and old ones wouldn't fit? Are the fog lights for facelift only in black colour? Check the pictures thank you(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200506/62413f89a115418acb4a206ede7df31e.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200506/cb95068dfbf7dd4e9135944223b5b4c9.jpg)

Just quickly looking at them and it's quite obvious your current fogs wont suit the newer facelifted bumper, pic 2 will be the new shape required.

No idea sorry, I think the face lifted model was a European release so possibly one of our members from your side of the world will have the answer :Good_luck:

Personally I think the black ones will look better :goodjob2: the smaller chrome light will be better aesthetically with a black background once fitted  :)

facelifted / euro version looks way better
