2013 Front end on 2009?
 

Has anyone tried to or already replaced the 09 front bumper with the '13 one? (the one with the stock DRL)

Yeah, they call them 2013-14s.


I know there is one for sure, who, no idea, but I know a guy who traded his 13+ for a 09-12 front.
You'd just have to jimmy the DRL lights to work, shouldn't be too hard

If nobody has a definite answer for you, there is quite a bit of body dimension info in the FSM. If the mounting holes are in the same place, it ought to work. I don't know if the FSM will have what you need, but it would be a good place to start.

As .5 pointed out, you will have to figure out the DRLs. Since many foreign early-year Zs had DRLs, some of the wiring and other hardware may already be there. Might be as simple as installing a relay and a couple of harnesses. FSM definitely has all the wiring info and, IIRC, part numbers.

If you're going to be doing any work on your Z, the FSM is a must-have.

If you are interested im searching for a nismo front bumper so i find one i can sell you my 2013 front bumper with the drl;)

Really hope Carlitos_370z is joking.:icon17: I think he has the only car with the new bumper style and nicely molded non-2013/14 lip kit.

OP - Can I ask why you would consider the bumper swap? Are you just looking for a cheaper way to upgrade appearance vs having to buy an Amuse or other aftermarket bumper?

hahahah!!! thanks for the feed back bro!!:tup: well im planing to track my car and i love how the nismo front bumper looks with the brake ducts in it thats the only reason ;) But trust me bro i want that Amuse kit so bad... its on my list of things to do with my Z

I found this.
