Will '07 Plastics fit '01 EC300

[Hicksi]

Hey Guys,
I have read the plastics related thread below this, although it addresses using other brand plastics...

As above, looking to smarten up my EC300.

Have spotted some '07 plastics and wondering if they would fit? If not, how much are the mounts out?

Thanks

I'm not positive but i think you need an 07-up subframe to work it
I have an 01 also .Think i read it somewhere

Nice one Stoby.

Can anyone back this up?

I would have thought if it's just the subframe that's the issue, it'll only take a little bit of modification.

Yes, I can back it up. It will take a new sub frame, airbox, and seat to take full plastics. You can do some mods but I think they are substantial. The rear subframes are radically different from 07 onward. I think the rough estimate to upgrade the back half is between $400 and $ 700 depending on used vs. new.

With that said, you can upgrade all the way to 06 fairly easy (I think)

Right, thanks for the pointer.

Didn't realise it would take so much...

I'm still tempted, although I'll need a new back end
