Realistically, will putting pre-facelift front on the facelift be a hassle?

Hi. I have been looking to buy the CT for a bit now but I love the front look of the pre facelift one much more than the X style of the later model. The thing is I wish to have a newer car than 2014.

So how much of a hassle to swap the old on to the new? I don't know much about modding car, and I am not comfortable on tinkering it too much like drill holes, cut this and that (if that make sense, you can tell I know s**t about car haha). I am in Europe so the regulation here is more strict as well.

Thanks
