Fronts are completely interchangeable between 997.1 and 997.2. Rears require the tail lights to be changed too I believe. Not entirely certain though. This assumes of course NB to NB and WB to WB. Mixing NB and WB rears does not work.
Random picture on the Internet. Notice the dip on the 997.2 tail lights on the left:

The 997.1 have different fog lamp/turn signal than 997.2. So I don't think the front bumpers are interchangeable.
the front end like the rear end is also fully interchangeable... i've done it (many others here as well).
you need front bumper, both LEDs, 2 grills + center retainer frame, 2 rad shrouds and center duct ... no need to even change the new computer. just splice the new wire looms.
no different then any other previous porsche (or any other brand) mid cycle updates... has always been interchangable re front and rear end.
