Default Xenon Front Bumper/Fascia in a v6

I have a v6 07 coupe. I purchased the Xenon Front Fascia (link below) and a Agent 47 GT Brake Duct (link at bottom).

The Xenon bumper was supposedly the same as the GT bumper in regards to grille assembly. I figured that the brake duct would work however it turns out there are no spots for it to clip in and go figure my v6 brake duct doesn't fit.

It also stated I needed to replace the lower assmebly with a gt lower grille assembly.

Any suggestions as to where I can go to find a hot after market piece that will fit? I think I'm looking for a replacement grille but I want to be sure of the fit this time.

Hmm I wonder if either of thesereplacement grilleswould work on my v6 with the forementioned Xenon Fascia.

These grilles are all supposedly direct bolt on replacements.

Cervini's Lower Billet Grille Part#7018 https://cervinis.com/product.aspx?ca...part=7018#7018
Cervini's Upper Billet Grille w/ Running Horse Part#7025 https://cervinis.com/product.aspx?ca...part=7025#7025
Cervini's Billet Grille w/ Inboard Fog Lights Part#7019 (have foglights on my pony package already) https://cervinis.com/product.aspx?ca...part=7019#7019

There are only a few things keeping me from clicking check out right now. I only know what the Xenon interpretation of a GT bumper is. I won't know for sure whether or not these will fit w/o seeing images of the GT stock bumper and/or the stock grilles before install.

It says on the xenon page that I need a factory grille. In otherwords top and bottom even though it doesn't specify...

Another hurdle is that I am unable to find a good factory parts store online. Everyone I find either doesn't have what I seek or says it does by text and w/o images I can't be sure it's what I'm looking for. Not looking forwards to talking to a dealer for parts...

Any full replacement bumper that is made for the GT will work with the v6. If the bumper mounts up to a GT it will mount to a v6, as long as its the full bumper. If I remember correctly I think you'll need new wheel liners to.

I'm not sure how easily you'll be able to find a reasonably priced stock GT lower bumper. You might be better off just going with the billet upper and lower grills.

You so made my day!

As far as the lower grille I spoke of earlier... I figured out that we'll... Xenon forgot they were supposed to send me a liner or whatever to fit in the bottom.

Another thing my research yielded is me finding out that this bumper doesn't allow for a chin spoiler/splitter. In otherwords the steeda wing I purchased will produce more downforce then my front end will be able to handle. I sure as hell hope I can catch the paint shop before they paint it monday. Thinking I might grab the steeda front bumper.



Edit: If I were to get a new Grille with Fog Lights can I use my existing foglight cables,etc.?

WOW, nothing is fitting. I hate it when that happens.
Looks like you got it figured out, though. Good luck.
Maybe buy all the parts from the same supplier and
when they dont fit complain that they claimed they
would when they sold em to ya?
