2003 rear Boxster bumper on 2000?

Tried to do a search on this but couldn't pull up this issue. Is the 2003-2004 rear bumper with the built in diffuser a straight bolt on for a 2000 Boxster? I like the look much better than my older stock one but wanted to make sure no modifications were needed. There are bolt on diffusers I know but would prefer the clean factory look. Thanks

You can do it, but the slight problem you'll have is that the top portion of the 03 bumper has a larger cutout to accomodate the larger rear moving spoiler. Thus, if you don't also update your rear spoiler lid to the 03 version, you will have a gap between the bumper and your older spoiler lid. I've seen someone do this on their car (without updating the spoiler lid, and the gap makes it look kinda goofy).
