hmm 96 Stillen front on a 97, will this fit

I think im gonna get a Kit pretty soon. I just a 97+ upgrade to the car. One thing that bothers me is the front spoiler that stillen offers for 97, How different(or similar) are the bumpers that i might be able to add the 96 front spoiler? Thanks.

a 97-99 front bumper will require a 97-99 front lip, they dont match up on the bottoms, the 97-99 looks much better than the 95-96 imo

Could a 97 bumper fit on a 95 max?

Ahh crap I never realized this I thought the appearance of the 95/97s where the same for the front lip.

I've been drooling over the front lip over all the 97s. Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh


Anyone have anytures of the two and how different the look? I need to replace my bumper anyway and if the 97s look better I might as well replace it with the 97 bumper.

I just ordered a 95-96 stillen aero kit as well. Maybe the guys @ Avalon will let me swap it out for a few extra $$$$

BTW please point me to that faq.

I'm sure they'll let you do that. I accidently ordered a RSTB for a 5th gen and I sent it right back and got a proper one. No problems, just a little longer to wait for shipping time.

ya you want to keep the body except the lip, the backs for 97-99 and 95-96 arent interchangeable, only the sides are, i can send you pics of my car before and after though they are a little dark and hard to tell anything is different except the grille, check this link for a comparison http://integra.vtec.net/geeser/megamax/comparison.html
