carpenterltd Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 So I'm missing working with my son on this car and I am at that point where I'm out of things to do to this car or my others and low and behold an idea...2013+ facelift! Anyone who knows me should know that there will be unique touches I will add to the new parts to make it stand out. Parts Purchased: $065.00 2013 Passenger Headlight (Not SE) $080.00 2013 Driver Headlight (Not SE) $055.76 45cm JDMToy Audi Style Switchbacks $014.97 3M Ribbon Sealer (For Headlight Sealing) $180.00 2014 Front Fascia $173.99 2014 Black Billet Grille $048.22 2013 Fog light Bezel ® $049.95 2013 Fog light Bezel (L) $064.90 Front Bumper Lip $019.85 Splitters So I'm down around $752 bucks, but can save on paint because I'll do it myself. Also hoping the 2010 fog lights will work with the new style housings. I wanted to post this up so anyone can see the transition. I am currently in the process of installing the switchbacks to the new headlight housings to conform to the "C-shape" and blacking these out (Not a fan of chrome). I am currently waiting on pearl paint to arrive and adjusting the splitters to mount the lip. Stay tuned for pics!

NVAKeith Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 I did it over the winter. You also need the tow hook cover for the bumper. There is a black filler piece at the top of the grill that has a different part number for 13+, I picked that up too but I didn't compare to see if it was necessary.

JLGT Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Not sure of this filler piece you speak. I went straight from a 2010 bumper and grille to a 2013 bumper and grille, nothing else necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NVAKeith Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Not sure of this filler piece you speak. I went straight from a 2010 bumper and grille to a 2013 bumper and grille, nothing else necessary. My memory was telling me that part number 91165AJ00A "Bracket Grill" only fit the 10-12 and the 13-14 had a different part number. I just looked it up and my recollection was incorrect. My bad, carry on! Oh and, TTIWWOP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJGT Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 I'm understanding that for a 2013 facelift - all I really need is the front bumper / fog light bezels, and grill...on the fog lights...is it settled whether or not ill have difficulty with the stock fog light harnesses? I thought I read somewhere the bulbs/harnesses were different what are all of the aftermarket options on the grill for the 2013/2014? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zee199969 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 what are all of the aftermarket options on the grill for the 2013/2014? CMOD makes one for the 2013-14 but I think thats about it. So to answer your question, there are even fewer options, unless you want to go the custom route. My "Build" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am running testa's 13/14 factory fogs on my '10 so you won't have problems reusing your fog lights, they're both H11 bulbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellesedil Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 There's an LED strip there, right? That's more or less what I want to do with my headlights. I'd skip the eyebrows, but just about everything else is spot-on with what I want to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went with JDMToy Audi Style switchbacks. Just in case anyone wants to know, 45cm is a perfect fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
