Would a 1.5 gen Edge rear bumper fit a 1 gen Edge?

[raddison]

Hello everyone. I hope everyone is doing well. As the title states, I am wondering if anyone knows from experience whether or not the rear bumper cover from a 1.5 gen Edge (2011-2014) fits onto a 1 gen Edge (2007- 2010)? I know people have exchanged the rear tail lights but I have never heard of anyone exchanging bumper covers.

 

The only reason why I am wondering is because I want the Edge Sport rear bumper, as the only Edge Sport made in the 1 gen was in 2009 and 2010, it is very rare and I can not find one near me. Shipping one would be quite pricy. I can however find some from the 1.5 gen era.

 

Thanks in advance.

Incase no one has done the switch and replies, one way to estimate compatibility is to compare the part numbers (which differ year to year based on body style changes). 

 

2010 Limited parts:

Rear lower w/o tow, F01100617 

Rear upper w/ rear object sensors,  F01100616 

Bumper reinforcement, rear w/o towing pkg, F01106349

 

2011 Limited parts:

Rear lower w/o tow, F01115100 

Rear lower w/ tow, F01115101 

Rear upper w/ rear object sensors, 
F01115101 

Bumper reinforcement, rear w/o towing pkg, F01106349

 

Note that for both generations, the bumper reinforcement is the same. I'd expect that the attachment points are the same, with the covers differing between minor styling changes. But that's only a guess.

Thank you very much enigma-2 for the research you put into your answer. I did in fact check all the parts using RepairLink and cross referenced the parts numbers including the reverse sensors. The parts that mattered seemed to match. But in our industry I have seen where parts match but still don’t fit because the parts are mounted slightly over from the previous model year. It’s rare but it does happen. If nobody else has done this I may have to be the guinea pig. Just hate spending over $200 on a guess. 

Thank you either way.
