The likelihood of someone doing this on this forum is slim to none.

But it seems like it can be done without modification. Only the fenders are wider, if I'm not mistaken.

Default maybe so, aren't the pieces on the fenders bolt on ?

If you do it, U would have an allroad without the air suspension

Default I dont think it will work well...

if you look at the bumper where it meets the wheel openings, there is a slight curve to mimic the curve of the wheel fender opening. The allroad bumper has no such curve where it meets the fender, since the wheels "flares" are bolted on plastic pices, not molded into the metal.

While the rest of the bumper will probably fit just fine, where it meets the rest of your car on the side will NOT look good.

Default just figured it would be a good upgrade, considering the bumper is scratched up a little.

They have diff bumper supports to compensate for the more shallow bumper cover.
