Getting ready to. I bought a used one and have it about ready for final paint and get her done. About 4 weeks from now. Also have the matching side skirts. Looking forward to the final results.

Should be pretty much straightforward - the fronts of the cars are the same / very similar...

There were a couple of reasons I went this way. Body kit wise. The bumper on mine is trashed. One of the hold down tabs under the bumper is gone. And the bumper is full of rock chips. I looked for a good used stock one. But the prices were outrages. $500.00 and up.
A member on here saw my post in the for sale/wanted thread and offered me this kit for $500.00 shipped. It needed some work. But no more than the stock bumpers I found used and they did not include shipping. The paint on the front of the bumper was crazed were the previous own had tapped something. I had to do some fiberglass work. Which I know how to do. No big woo. I'll post pic's when done. Randy

We're very happy with it! It's a great ride. The '97 I had first was pretty beat but it was such a great car that I had to upgrade when I totaled it; this is the upgrade!
