08 Front Bumper on 06?

Hey guys, will an 08 Front bumper mount up to a 2006? If so, is it a flush fit or is there any kind of gapping, etc? Thanks

early 06's have the 04-05 bumper. So if you have the bumpper with the big gap in the front you need the brackets. If you have the late 06(NO Problem)

if your 06 is an early model with the big gap and no top bar then youll need the brackets and maybe the backer pad/mounts off of the upper bumper cover on the 08. The upper pad/mounts very slightly but it may work with the 06+ bumper easily. If your 06 has the bumper with the small gap with a top bar then you can change out to the new bumper by just bolting it in.

Look at my sig, and look at the pic up top for upper gap refrences.
If you need any more info just post up or pm me
