look at ebay item 181141492088
these are for pre face lift but i think you can get different for post.
The main problem though will be the ability to crack open your headlights.
mine, although on a 53 plate are 2004 manufactured headlights and as such had the non softenable
glue in them!!

I had to dremmel out the joint to split mine then reseal afterwards.

will try to get photos of method used but does look very frightening to do..
however when put back together and sealed you wouldnt notice unless you started pealing trim off
