      Thanks for all your replies,the modification only cost me just over £150.00.The rest of the cost was paid for by the insurance company.Long story short,I was parked
      in a pub car park.Somebody reversed into my car left there details at the bar and drove off.Eventually claimed off his insurance and our local bodyshop carried out
      the work.I asked his insurance company if i could upgrade to the facelift model.They agreed if i payed the the difference in any cost between the old and new model.
      So i payed the additional £150.00 cost i incurred.Total cost to the insurance company £2,100.Front sensors were after market,cobra park master.I fitted these to old model and hope to fit them to the new
      model soon.
      Cheers Marky.

        Is it difficult to facelift the bumper? Or is it plug and play?

        Thank you

          New bumper is a straight swap. Not sure how you'd go about wiring up front parking sensors if you didn't already have them though.

            I plan on upgrading to new facelift front bumper that has parking sensors. Has anyone wired the front parking sensors to the existing rear bumper parking sensors system?

              Hi,Barola, i used cobra park master sensor's.The new face lift models come with the two Citroen sensors built in the black grill as standard(not wired in).To cut the other two holes in the painted body panel
              you will need a compression hole cutter.The position of these are marked on the inside of the bumper.IF you buy a sensor kit it should come with instructions on how to link the front sensors to
              the rear sensors.This would be the most expensive option,ask a dealer for a price?I just wired the front sensors for ease of use.Best of luck! Marky.

                Thanks for the answer. Sounds not very easy....1. I need to get cobra park sensor (could you please provide a link/model number...so many of them available) 2. Cut the bumper holes with compressor hole cutter 3. Sensor kit from delaer (any part number). I already have the Citroen original rear parking sensor....not sue why it is needed to order another sensor kit from the dealer.

                  I read it as you choose to buy another sensor kit from Citroen OR go with the Cobras.

                    The face lift bumper I got has 4 factory parking sensors with complete wiring. On my 2011 I already have factory rear parking sensors system (no front sensors). My concern is how to connect face lift bumper that already has factory built in parking sensors with wiring to my existing "parking system" wiring? Are there any part numbers wires that should be ordered from Citroen to connect the front sensors? I just cannot get the face lift model 2016+ DS3 part diagrams on internet to see the wiring loom. On Citroen web parts site with my VIN numbers I can only see the 2011 parts list which shows pre face lift part numbers only.

                        Hello
                        I am thinking to go for a facelift too for my 2010 car I found a facelift model front bumper to buy. I also need a facelift grill. Is there also a lower grill part? And what about the fog lights? Direct fit to the new bumper? (My car does not have any parking sensors so no worries for that)
