Does anybody know if this is a compatible swap? I found a front bumper kit for a 2010 that is not available for a 2006 and want to know if it is possible.

Technically, no.

The topic has been discussed on here a few times, and while it would IN THEORY be possible to fit the entire second gen kit to a first gen car, it would be costly and time consuming (lots of modification required). At the end of the day, everything is possible if you throw enough time and money at it. :o

I know the side skirts are a relatively easy fit (and I've seen photos of it done), but despite all the theoretical discussion, I'm not sure that I've actually ever seen a first gen car fitted with either the front or rear second gen bumpers...
