Hey Guys I was wondering I'm looking to (MAYBE) swap my 95 front end with the 98+ front end due to the nicer front end possibilities like headlights hood etc. Any help Thanks

I don't think the post 98 front ends fit on pre-98's without some cutting and hacking.


Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.

Ya, I remember seein on here someone trying it... The frame part is squared off on the pre98s, and is like rounded or notched or something to allow the 98+ headlights to fit... So if ya got a torch/welder you might be able to notch just enough so the headlights fit w/o damaging the structural integrity...

Or you can probly just get a 98+ front clip and put that on... maybe an engine and/or transmission upgrade that way too...

I still wouldn't mess with the structural integrity of the car, torch welder or not... thats just plain stupid. Sell the 95 and buy a 98 if its that big a deal. You can pick them up a dine a dozen now a days.

No it's not really that big of a deal I love my car but I want An evo hood for it and all they make for mine is an oem cf hood, not to mention some of the stuff I read about new headlights.
