Default Front fascia and side mirriors

For example the 2010 front fascia of the GS and the side mirrors with turn signals, will these fit on 06's without trouble or just pop out and pop in?

Fitted the 08-09 bumper with no problems on my 06. The signal mirrors are too expensive than they're worth. Think it's required to buy the whole mirror assembly. You can get aftermarket signal mirrors for much cheaper.

Does that include the grill part where the chrome is pointing outwards? can I see a pic of your ride?

The 08+ grill has changed, so you'll have to pick that up too. Here is a pic of my car snapped with my iPhone.

Personally I prefered. The 06-07 Grille and bumper. It was much cleaner. I find the revised look on the 08-09 which is what I have to lack aesthetic coherence with the rest of the car.

i don't like the 08+ grille chrome trim, but i like the bumper more. it's more dynamic and slicker
