i wanna paint my front and rear bumper but everytime i see a 97 i love the way it looks.....if i do get the front i wanna get the 97 front lights, grille, and bumber.but if i dont then i wanna paint the front but also get the oem foglights since i dont have it....is it worth the installing trouble....the front bumper i found for 90 Primed.

 

it's up to you. the only real reason of doing it is because you like the 97 front better than the 95. do you like it enough that it is worth doing? personally, i don't think so. I would like to, but not unless a great deal comes along.

 

i did it and it looks awesome

the front bumper was 100
the grill was 60
and the headlights were 170
and to paint the bumper was 150

about 480 total

 

49 for rear bumper, 64 for front bumper, 20 for girlle, dont ask where i got it from, just hookups

and yes its worth it

 

Did u see a great diff in looks meaning everytime i feel like i see a 95/96 front on this forum it looks thinner but then i see a 97-99 it looks wider...maybe its because the ppl put tooooo thin of wheels which makes it look wierd to me...and yes i no it really isnt a wider bumber

 

ya the 97-99 bumper is a little wider looking at the bottom huge difference

 

well i can get a used front bumber, grille from the salvage and it should be a lot cheaper and then have someone paint it

 

i bought everything new

 

how hard is it to convert

 

its very easy take off the headlight take off the grill and the bumper and swap everything out its a direct bolt on

 

the bumper is a lil tricky to take off but rather easy

 

but i read the stickies and they said u have to make some type of bracket for the front bumper

 

nope not true i did it on my car by my self and i didnt have to do anything like that

 

how long ago did u convert...and did u convert the rear

 

about 6 months ago no i didnt do the rear i didnt know there was a difference in the back

 

the 97-99 front bumper is by far way better than the 95-96 bumper if you do the conversion you have to get 97-99 fog lights it looks way better

 

yea....Zad1 thx for your help and Pateince...... think i might do the conversion

 

ya if you need any help let me know

 

i want to do the front coversion but i just dumped my money into a MEVI. I love the front and fogs of a 97. Check out pinnaclenissan.com they have good prices
