For the 97+ bumper conversion can you do it without the 97+ headlights?
I just can't afford those headlights so I was wondering if that would be a problem to keep the 96 headlights and just do the bumperand grill. Thnaks

no problem whatsoever, if u just doing the bumper and grille it should be fine. Although i would suggest getting the 97+ lights just cause they look so much better, i know i did the conversion as well. Its like having a new car.
Try looking at some junkyards and what not.

The whole conversion cost me $220. I wasnt really looking to do a conversion, but i was just browsing the recycler.com classifieds and soem guy was parting out his car and it was black!! So i called him up told him ill give him $200 for everything then he said $220. At this point i was too gity to keep negotiaeing and just said ok. Here is what i got for $220:
98 trunk w/ spoiler
98 headlights and corner lights
98 front and rear bumper
Everything was also black a little double bonus
Only thing i bought serparate was the grille so i guess $250 total

so far I am in about $280
$30 for a white SE grille (matches my car color)
$100 for a silver bumper cover ( will be $$$ for paint)
$135 for the foglight kit with brackets and all.
I'll be keeping my regular headlights and rear until I can get some more $$$
I'm hoping to get a white trunk so I won't have to repaint it.
my main worry is getting the front bumper repainted.
