is there anything different on the rear from 06 to current? Looks like its the side mirrors and front bumper that got the face lift or is it more.

if you talk about facelift on the 08+, front and rear bumpers are both different from 06-07.

if you are asking about the JD kit, i have no idea if there is any difference in the rear. seems not, but who knows

On the JD the 2007 has a different body kit, side skirts, rear bumper are different!

The 2008 kit is called "neo series" has the rear diffuser, blah, blah

looks a little more tracked out but overall almost "almost" the same!

i have to say the update is pretty ugly. the long rear end seems so unproportional.
