Default Does anyone know the difference between '92 & '96 bodies?

I just bought a '92 es300, this is my first Lexus. I would dlike to put a body kit on it, but most of the few I have seen are for '96 on. The pictures of these kits look like my body style, am I missing some subtle difference? Has anyone put one of these later model kits on a '94 or below? Thanks

Cool

92-96 are the same. 97+ are different. 92-94 have one style of headlights + foglights + front facia, 95-96 has another. Just like, correct me if i'm wrong, 97-99 are different from 00-01 slightly.
With enough time, or money you could put a corvette end on the front if you felt like it.
Yes anything from the same generation will swap, even between other Camry platforms *if* you modify it to work.

Thanks for all of the help. I was probably going to go with aftermarket fog lights anyway, so it sounds like the body kit should work without any major mods.

I like the shark body kit on wickedbodies.com. I also like the couture kit, but it's a little pricey.

the shark kit is for a 97... the couture kit is nice, what I was planning on getting until the tranny went out that last time.
