Yep. Your headlights will be different though. You will need projector headlights or some stock 97-99 headlights.

I'v got the projectors. So what you say is that the bumper will be a perfect bolt on after i change the headlights???/////
Thanks

If I am not mistaken it should be a direct bolt on.

They're both a direct fit, but don't get pissed off when you start to snap the bolts that are holding on the bumpers right now. When I swapped mine, I bet I snapped at least half a dozen of 'em. It probably depends on where in the US your car's been. If it's seen winters with salt & crap, you'll probably snap quite a few. Then you'll have to drill out & retap the threads x(. Good luck if you decide to do it. :thumbsup
