The 2018 has a different rear bumper to that of the 2016MY only difference is to house the exhaust tips as they are fitted to he bumper itself, I have one of each (both supercharged) and have just looked at mine and i would say the tips would fit from a quick glance without adjustment. I would stick to original equipment bumper as i wouldn't want to be playing around with exhaust fumes at the rear. From what i understand its easy enough to facelift the rear bumper with original equipment bumper. Plenty have done it and there are plenty of 2018 bumpers on the web for sale cheaply. Hope that helps.

Thank you so much for the info! So technically, I could just buy the 2018 exhaust tips and retro fit them to my 2016 bumper correct? There is the video on you tube showing the 4 different bumpers but for the 2018, they just have the tips lying on top of the underside of the bumper so hard to see how they attach. Mike |

Hi Sorry no you need the 2018 bumper as they fit to the bumper itself, the 2016 cant be adapted to accept the tips from a 2018. |

Funnyguy, if you want to fit 2018 tips then as DrF says above, the 2018 factory standard rear bumper is completely different to your 2012-2018 and is built to house the larger tips...

Yes the 2018 bumper will bolt straight on sir but! Weather you need to change anything with your exhaust ends? I simply do not know? |
