it looks out of place. look at the 2nd pic on the lower part of the grill. you may want to change back to your original grill and put mesh on it.

If you would have put a 97 bumper on it the grill would have fit perfectly, plus the 97 bumper looks so much better. eyes peeled for ebay u can get one painted/matched for under $200

Best advice: put the '96 grill back. do a front end conv if you want a 97+ grill.

if u like it leave it. but u can definitely spend some extra time and make it fit a lot better. save up and do u 97+ conversion. if u like da 97 grill...ull love da conversion....
