sideskirts and rear are interchangeable where are the front LCI will fit the preLCI but the preLCI front wont fit the LCI. if you had to fit it, you would need the shave the bumper bar along with shifting a couple parts. what parts exactly, i am not sure

I'm not sure about the bumper foam but when I meant shaving I meant the bumper bar

Ok, to make sure we're clear. An LCI bumper will fit a pre LCI car no modding, but a pre LCI will fit an LCI with some modding?
