10246, Want to get a body kit for my talon
Posted by deadfish39, Dec-04-01 12:42 PM
I have a 1997 Talon ESI. I was recently involved in an accident. I have alot of front end damage. So i was figurin that i would jus get an estimate from the insuarance company have them right me a check and I would buy all after markets parts cuz they usually cheaper to buy than new stock parts. I want to no, if i buy a front body kit bumper for an eclipse would it fit just like an oem bumper? For example if i wanted the wings west agressor font bumper would i need to do any mods to my car to get it to fit? THX

Deadfish-
our talon head lamps are the same size as 95-96 eclipse head lamps- so anything made for a 95-96 eclipse should fit, no problems. if you get any front end that fits a 97-99 eclipse, you'll need to get 97-99 eclipse head lamps.

hey man no you wont.. i have a 95 eclipse with 97 projectors and a 97 bumper... the cars are the same cept the f and r bumpers.. but they all mount up the same way u can put a eclipse rear on your talon with just some brackets to hold it up better. but if you get the lights it will fit.. just keep in mind not all kits fit perfect some you have to modify. i had trishatalons evo bumper but it never fit right around the headlights so i just sold it.. my BC bumper i have now fit perfect..

well you can get the blitz from just about anywhere.. i know its your car but just want to let you know the blitz is really kinda played out now..there are a lot of new ones that just came out and some less used. but u will seethe blitz all over..but if you want it get it dude.just wanted to give u some insight on it..

i never bought anything from them but importfan is a great site.. on showing new stuff..

www.visracing.com is supposed to have great kits

i got mine from carisma ... side skirts didnt fit but other then that it was good..
