Are you going from pre facelift to facelift or pre facelift to Touran V2 front end?

Ok, I have a facelift 2015 van. I can get a picture of the side of the wing interface but of course the wing is still on so only the inner edge bit but it may help you? To see the profile of the inner wing upper edge.

I am sure there is a few videos on YouTube with owners documenting this. Have a look on there if you don't get an answer on here buddy.
