^ that bumper looks messed up, i think ill probably just be buying a 97+ front at this point. Seems like a better option. before that i still gotta finish up my wheels, do the brake swap and get some coils. ill start a build thread once i get all the parts and mod the car

I knew about the 97+ upgrade, but i like the sides and the rear bumper of the older models more. but i like the front bumper of the 97+ more. So what i would like to do is get the 97+ front bumper only. but im not sure it will flow well without the rest of the body.

The 97+ kit as a whole is lower than the 92-96 stock bodies. If you just got a 97+ front bumper it would only be lower in the front because the rest of the car doesn't have anything to make it lower. I mean if you're into having like a lip to make your front end look lower just by itself then by all means go ahead, it's your car after all.

^^^it would look like you're trying to pass it off as a 97+. WHy would you wanna delete the fogs? Looks like it has big chipmunk cheeks and it's trying to smile.
