95-97 conversion
Just bought my 95SE and I'm swappin the front and rear bumpers,trunk,lights,grill to the 97-99s.If I switch my rear bumper to a 97 will my APEXi WS exhaust not stick out of the bumper? Because I know the 97 bumpers are a little further out then the 95s.Havent gotten the exhaust yet,so no I cant find out for myself.

Deezy- I like the smooth 97 trunk lid better for some reason.

Why not?
The 97-99 red/clears look so much cleaner then the 95/96 red clears.(CE's not the David L's) They are just too flashy.

Black/clears are the best though

I agree the 97+ clears still look better than all. Your Black Clears looks hot.

I have the 95-96 HKS Sport axelback exhaust on my 97. As you can see, the tip is tucked inside the bumper a bit. No biggy. I actually like how it looks this way.
