05 rear bumper on an 01

just a quick question that im sure has been asked before.

Someone offered me a free 05 bumper to go on my 01 and i like the look of the 04-05 bumpers more anyways. I thought i heard that it would mount up on my 01 without any mods. i was just wondering if anyone can confirm that it will just mount up like the stock one?



thanks,


Jay

I would also like to know this. I am pretty sure the 04-05 front and rear bumpers do not fit our cars. But I am not positive.

Re: 05 rear bumper on an 01

i know for certain the front bumpers dont fit because of the shape of the headlights are different on the 04-05

I remember hearing that you can. As a matter of fact I'm pretty sure a couple members have done it. It's just the front that's different. You can swap anything on the rear from 01-05 I am pretty sure.

yes they will bolt rite on your thinking of the 01-03 rear lip that won't fit on a 04-05 bumper.

The 04-05 rear lip also does not fit well on the 01-03 rear bumper, but it can be molded into shape to fit better using a heat gun.
