I have searched the threads and have not found out where I will have to make brackets. I was in an accident awhile back and never had time to fix my front bumper. I'm going to have free time though for the next 2 weeks so I was wondering if someone can tell me or show me pics of where I will have to make brackets to make the 97+ bumpers fit on a 96. Thanks in advanced.

 

Umm, what brackets? You just cut out 2 1 inch squares in the bumper and voila...

 

Sorry, but I thought I read that brackets were needed to make the bumper fit right. I must have misread it or something. So where would I cut out the 2 one inch squares? Where the grille meets with the bumper? Thanks again.

 

yup!...just to the inside of the each headlight. You'll see it once you get the parts and you're ready to put it on.
