Default 2014 IS with 2017 Headlights?

Hey guys, did a bit of research already but still feel like there’s no for sure answer.. has anyone installed the 2017 headlights onto a 2014-2016 IS? Not the tribeams version. Wondering if it will fit or do we need to change the bumper and fenders...

The bumper, yes, but the fenders are the same for 2014-2018. No changes there.

Same amount of work even if not tri-beam LED headlights since people with 2017 can plug and play tri-beam headlights on their car
so far I have not heard of anyone with 2014-16 install and get '17 LED headlights fully working

Thanks for the info, for the bumpers is it one piece or is the grill and the fog inserts a different part? Also would we need to change the hood?

Grill and inserts are different part numbers than the bumper
