If yes, install easy?
Where/How much to get one? Dealer? OEM part store?
Thanks?

Yes very easy to install it will bolt right up. But there is one little problem, easy to fix but it can get expensive, you need to also upgrade you headlights along with the bumper.

I got a used 97 front end on my 96 GS. Bought it off of eBay for $100 and it even included the grill kit (and some stickers). The shipping was a real pain though... $140, so if you can find one locally that'd be better.
Bolts right up without any problems at all.

Whaaat? $35?? What'd you use?
I paid $140 using UPS Logistics, and they even sent it to a business address. It would'a been $170 had they sent it to my house. Expensive as heck.
