Xc60 upgrading mk1 front end to mk2
Looking for some information guys.
Was checking everywhere but no luck.. I have XC60 D5 AWD late 2012 (62 plate) and would like to upgrade front end to facelift model (2014-2017). Anyone of you done this before? Is it straight swap bumper, headlights and bonnet? Thank you for any information 👍 |

I've thought about this because the new shape front end looks much better.
Having studied lots of pictures, I think the wings are different too. You may have electrical issues as well with the difference DRL arrangements.

Probably staying with the old face
It’s possible and not very difficult..if you will go for used parts frome ebay it will be at least £1k.. I dont facelifting to my insignia before Will be doing some different modifications instead of facelifting this time |
