My rear bumper cover has 7 years of scratches and gouges, so I'm contemplating having it repainted. However, the look of the 97/99 bumper cover seems better (the lower lip has a more aggressive look). If I can get one without too much $$ for my budget, I'd rather go with one.

Can the 97/99 bumper cover fit on a 95/96? They look practically identical to me, although I haven't been able to look at them side-by-side. Anyone know if this is possible? Thanks!

Correct me if I'm wrong but....

The trunk lid is different between the years, you would have to replace that too or do some customizing on the bumper cover....

It will go on, you just need the to drill in the supports, for the added bumper length. Also you need the bumper protector, so that the trunk doesn't scratch it up. I've done it, its looks much better then the 95-96.

BtW, theres no need to change the trunk lid.
