Hi guys i want to facelift my rrs iv seen loads of facelift kits on ebay ranging from £1500 to £3000 for front and rear bumpers wings grill and lights but iv also seen genuine facelift second hand bumpers for £100 and wings for £300 whats is the differenc can anyone help on the best way to do it cheers

All depends on cost TBH. If you want genune parts you can pick them up relativly cheap on ebay and could even get your colour bumpers as loads on ebay. As for lights they will be expensive because of the LED and xenons. You can pick up front grills and side vent for £100 a set. I would go with genuine parts rather than after market, as the finish and fitments are always much better. Good luck anyhow.

Not 100% sure on what i need to get will the facelift bumpers fit or do i need wings and headlights ect

Have you tried the search facility at the top of the page? There have been several threads about face lift projects. Some of them are quite detailed. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Iv had i look but not seen any that tell me exactly what i need to buy iv seen a rrs on ebay with facelift but i dont think the wings have been changed as the vents are not but up to the doors

PEACHY will be along soon after he has had his Sunday rest. He will have all the answers for you. Yes you will need to change the front wings if you want to do it right.

Ok thanks .im i right in guessing that the one in my pic does not have the new wings ?

Thanks Ady at work actually

FRONT - Wings & ( 10MY wing fixing kit ) - headlights - front grill - side vents - front bumper ( fog lights - fog light bezels - parking sensors - adapted wiring loom - tow eye cover - ) wheel arch linings - 10MY wing docking stations - front grill locating brackets - also a new ACC bracket if Cruise control fitted. Headlight wash wipe nozels & tubing.

Mud flaps if currently fitted will need to be replaced on the rear.

The above does not include the 12MY tailgate upgrade. I think I have covered most parts needed.

I agree. It looks great as it is and you should try not to spoil the car. If you have spare money you. Pups start saving for a newer model.

I agree, it's really nice just as it is in Rimini Red. Just leave it and enjoy it and save for a newer Sport. You won't recoup a £ of what you spend modding it as it will always be a 2005 car and when it comes to trading it, many dealers who will be selling you the newer one will run a mile, genuine parts or not. Gone - 2008 Stornoway Grey RRS 2.7 TDV6
