2016 - 2020 7series trunk swap

Would the 2020 trunk fit onto the 2016 without any mods? If so has anyone done it and can share pictures? I love the look of the new 2020 back but hate the huge grills in the front.

Not sure it's viable I think the rear lights are a different shape you'd need the trunk lid/rear bumper/both rear wings

the rear quarter panel continues over the doors and stops at the mirrors.

He'll still need one regardless of where it stops.

Sell yours and get a 2020. Cheaper and easier. Not a fan of Frankencars.

Agree. Can you imagine ever being able to sell a car whose body rear end had been replaced? Q: "Was it in an accident" A: No, I just wanted a different trunk line." "Righhhht" (backing away slowly).
