Hey guys, unfortunately, I smashed my 2002 Q45's front end. I'm requesting 2005 headlights, front bumper and grill. Will it fit?????

Anyone have any expertise on this matter?

On a side note, 2005 headlight units are $300.00 less than 2002's! Maybe because they are easier to find, more inventory.

***thanks in advance***

Looks like you may need the hood too. 05 also has foglights.

Yeah, you'll definitely need a new hood as well.

Also note the chrome strip on the 05 that's not on the 02.

Hood for 05-06 is completely redesigned. It's not compatible with the 02-04. Headlight unit is also different.

Its could be done I suppose but it may not look right.

05 has moldings in the bumper Vs 02 has flat bumper, you will need to change the hood as the 05 hood is more flat Vs 02 Rounder. Fogs vs no fogs, the cruise control sensor is in the center on the 05 vs offset on the 02.
