Yeah everything is from the current model 460..
The new bumper actually extends outward a bit sorta like the Nike lights,the car is actually done but it has to get polished out tomorrow which is gonna suck since it's supposed to snow/rain but I'll get pics up when it's done..

As for anyone who was thinking about doing it down the line there's a few things I wanna share so it'll save you time & you'll know what to expect..I'm actually at work so I'll get that up later tonight.

Looks good. Can we use the +10 bumper with the 2008 headlights?

Thanks..No you can't use 2010 bumper with 08 headlights cause he headlights would look sunken in & the washers on the 08 lights won't let the 2010 fit,it'll be the reverse of what I did prior.

The 2010 Bumper is on a more of an upward sweep from the grill area to the sides because of the elimination of the headlamp washers on the light..basically it's a tighter fit under the lamps

The part circled is the extension on the 2010+ bumper & it's extended so the lights flow inward towards the grill & since I had to dremel the old bumper cause the new lights are so pointed.

Looks good. I kinda like the 2007-09 front bumper and grille better though.

Just got done reading this and didn't get to see the outcome... Can you rehost the final pics so I can see the awesomeness?
