Body Part / Cosmetic compatibility

Hello!

I've read around quite a lot and haven't found an definite answer yet.

I currently own a 2008 R3 model (231) and had an accident damaging my bumper and my O/S headlight.

I've spent a long time on eBay waiting for someone to sell parts with no luck.

I recently came across someone selling a 2008 R3 (192) and based on other forums and articals I've read apart from the engine, the other main differences between the two are apparently cosmetics, the 192 I found has heated seats which I thought were only in the Kuro model however the main question was around bumper / headlight compatibility.

Are these the same or are these different for the 192 and 231?
I will be stripping the 192 for spare parts to keep mine alive for the next few years.

Any help appreciated
Gus

R3's didn't start untill the face lift in 09, but as long as its a S2 the engine power rating wont affect the body parts(read front bumpers)

That R3 is not an R3, or its not a 192, or its not an 08.
