anything is possible if you throw enough money at it...but just from a quick glance...I say no


Different curvature would be the biggest killer IMO

The 09s are a couple inches wider than the 04-08s. Wont work.

As is most of the looks of the new F-150. Kinda sad, but love how my '05 look so much better than the brand new ones on the lot

you probably could cut the center of your stock 07 bumper and use the filler panel from the 09s

I think stealth got it right,

09's= Contoured all the way
04-08's= Flatten out towards the center

Plus like Msall said the 09's are wider, I discovered that in asking about the Rize lift for the 09's.

And our bumper looks way better, I'm not sure what the point of those two gigantic black lumps in the middle are but I dont like them...
