So ..I have a friend selling his 2011 face lift model's front bumper and the grill ..Luxury model...

I'm thinking to buy them, cos he is selling to me very cheap
My question is....mine euro is a 2009 luxury one..so

Do the 2011 front bumper and the grill fit the 2009 accord euro luxury?


I just called Honda to find out ...and the guy said...they dont fit...

Is it true? .....

Many thz

I think he wants the face lifted look?

I'm sure they will fit considering the 09 Modulo kit fits the 2012 models?

I can't remember what my dealer said when I went to get my rear and sides but I think the 2012 model has to have a few adjustments for the front bar..... Maybe try calling a few other dealers to get more info rather than just one place?

They definitely fit 100%. Everyone's view is different, but to me the MY12 front looks better.

very true....each to their own...as the saying goes...

regardless whether it is either the pre facelift or facelift model....i would change it to the modulo kit straight away....the facelift one looks too falconish to me....

I DO FEEL THE SAME...THE NEW BUMPet looks similar to the falcon...
I want the modulo ..but it isnt cheap......
SO The facelift bumper fits the pre fave lift

but the guy i spoke to in honda...said..dont fit at all...e even said 2012 modulo doesnt fit pre face life model.-.-

Would you prefer if I was to say they don't fit? The Only difference is that with the MY08 - MY11 models you could keep the original 3 bar grille or fit the Modulo sports grille. With the MY12 you need to fit the Modulo sports grille everything else is the same. Don't forget we all have individual views on what looks best & what suits 1 person may not suit another.
