was just wondering how hard it is to put a 97-99 front end on a 96 eclipse? does it fit the same? just have to bolt it on? send me an email jmr420@insight.rr.com

from what i've been told it is relatively bolt on.. but you will have to get some 97-99 headlights also, or it won't fit, cause the bumper and headlights are different on the 95-96 and 97-99.

My summer bumper is a 97. It will bolt right up but the head lights (96 and down) will push the bumper up a little. If you want a clean look buy the 97+ lights but you don't have to.
