BUT I have to do it all over, b/c as most know I got in a wreck before I got it painted (put it on to make sure it fit first). Now my bumper is all out of place, and there are gaps around my fenders, and both high beams (everything shifted to the right).
Good so what you see confirms what I have ALREADY SAID . So there is no point of your's to be made.

I looked at some pics of the 97 and up and the rear is definately different, not sure if I am going to go through doing that though....as those 2 little $79.00 pieces likely only fit on the new bumper anyways.

Now as to the high beams, do you think the retrofit to the 97 ones would be easy, maybe some rewiring? I figure it might be worth it to pick up a pair for $100 from a junk yard versus having the auto body guy f*** it up.

What ARE the differences between the older and newer headlights, I always thought they were the same ones.

I agree with painting and then putting it on....you would be charged more for having it taken off and then put back on, etc. etc. and I would definately get all the correct clips....I mean so what its an extra $40 for the side skirt clips. I wouldnt risk rigging them on.


You don't have to buy new ones. I kept my '92's.
