I haven't done to the conversion to my car, but we did do a friend of mine's 95 GS-T. We swapped the front, rear, and sides with no problem. Everything bolts right up effortlessly, but you will need 97-99 factory or projector headlights. The 95-96 has a different headlight so when you put the 97-99 front bumper on, it won't fit right around the headlights. Don't get me wrong, it will fit, but you'll have a nasty gap in between the lights and the bumper if you don't swap them too.

P.S: Make sure to keep your all your bolts cause you'll need every one of them!

uhh.. i think you are confused.. there will be overlap if you dont used 97-99 headlights w/ 97-99 bumper.. they are shorter than the 95s.

I think that we all have a PLO (parts left over) pile... :-D By the way, I think that Kory has done the swap, but he has had a lot of sheit going on and I am not sure that he has seen this thread.

go for it bro... you're 2/3 of the way there. my car's going under the knife in early-june. full 1998 body conversion, wings west 3-piece spoiler, and full paint job. most likely same color with pearl added in. maybe some shaving done (e.g. antenna and door handles, depending on price).
