Default Gen front bumper on Gen2?

Hey new here. Very interested in getting a MS3. I currently own a 2005 BMW 745Li and was past owner of a 1991 Mustang 5.0 fully modded and a 2005 Corvette Z06. I decided to look into MS3 because I met someone with one and got to drive it. I love the fact that it has 4 doors and it is a hatch! It will be my daily driver being I don't want to add miles to the BMW. One thing I have looked for, googled, searched and can't find is if the front bumper of a Gen 1 fits a Gen 2. I love everything about the Gen 2 but I love the front bumper on the Gen 1. I am older so I like a subtle look. Just wondering if it does or can it be modded to do so. Thanks!

Short answer is no it won't fit.

Yes it can fit with a bunch of custom work. Then it will look out of place and shitty because the bumper/body lines won't flow together well at all.

2005 Mazda 3 SP23: mods include rusty quarter panels and grinding 3rd gear. It does have a fusion motor, so I guess that's a mod too.

When the car is tastefully lowered, especially with the CS hood scoop paint matched, the smile looks menacing. And if you actually have the power to back it up, it's like a retarded serial killer. Enjoy.
