Hi Justin, I've just spotted this post.

You say you're looking at the pre-facelift D3, are you talking the 1st or 2nd facelift?

Early D3's have had problems with the MMI system, so ensure you check everything works before committing to buy one.

As for a DIY facelift, I don't expect there'd be any problems in converting. As you rightly point out there's no reason why they wouldn't fit. I do know that there have been conversions, but I can't find one for the life of me!!!
