Update 2010 front end to facelift 2015

Just wanting some advice from anyone who may have done this in the past.

I have a 2010 Turbo and I have the opportunity to get Parts from Porsche to update to a 2015 facelift front end.

Obviously from the front end I want it to look like a 2015.

It it is just a matter of front bar and headlights?

Or or does the bonnet and front guards need to be changed also?

Can anyone who has done this shead some light.

Thanks

I think there was a post somewhere about doing this, and it's not just a bumper and headlights. I believe it was also fenders and possibly even the hood. Obviously quite a bit of work and then you have to have someone program all the lighting, sensors etc to to the old ecu. Good Luck and keep us posted on your results.

Looking at pictures and comparing to my car, it appears its just the bumper and headlights. the fenders and hood look the same.

I have looked through the forums. I too remember a thread about it, but for the life of me cant find it.

Can anyone else chime in who has done this before? Thanks

Question: why would you do this?
It is likely to lessen the value of your car, you spent thousands of €€€€ and the look is awfully close.

I have also considered doing this. Main reason. It looks slightly better, AND there are more options for a carbon splitter. Nearly impossible to find any for the 2010 turbo front. Without spending a fortune.

I guess it will be easy to compare part numbers for the front parts for the 2010 and facelift.

The part numbers for Fender & Hood appear to be the same for 2010 & 2015

Appears as though only need to change headlights and bumpers
