It'll change fine, the 97 is longer by an inch or 2. The gap on the trunk I'm not sure about though. I had my rear bumper and trunk both changed.

It will be fine from what i have seen. It wont line up under the tail lights perfectly tho, it will stick out a bit farther, but nothing worth worrying about..

PLUS if you get the 97 rear, you can buy my 97 rear stillen valences for when you get your kit!

I did it and it looks fine, the bottom of the trunk doesn't meet flush where the bumper is, but it's nothing big.
