Its not a perfect fit but you can make it work. You will either have to cut some of the bumper out below the 95 headlight, or ive heard some people "stretched" the bumper over the bottom of the headlight.

Custom intake I would guess??

bumper hangs over. there's a 95 here w/ a stillen front on it w/ 95-96 lights. looks normal until u get close. doesn't look bad at all imo. they made it fit tight tho.

I got the 95 headlights with a 97+ blitz bumper - all I did was put washers in the front of where the bumper mounts to the car (underneath the hood)....your bumper will be a little off on the fenders though due to this emoji

Sorry but its hard to explain where I mean - when you take off the bumper you'll know where. (the 4 screws attaching the bumper are attached to a black piece of metal - just take this piece off, then put 2 or 3 washers back on, and resecure it....this should move the bumper out enough)

I didnt read the replies so maybe someone has said this.......

But I made it work. I got talon 95 headlights, painted black inside of course, and fit them under a 97 eclipse front. YOu know the 5 screws that go in the bumper between the headlights? You know, the little section between the headlights? Well I left out the outer 2. It fit. Part of the hedlight is under the bumper. Not noticeable.

I got banned for being a constant tard.

welp, it werkd... pics to cum after test n tune tomorrow...

i rigged a 95 style headlight, cut a hole in the highbeam side, and ran my intake outside the ride, and my filter is chillen....

actually, when i was testin it out in 3rd and into 4th gear, i thought i saw a cop weavin in and out of traffic behind me, well, i hit my brakes, and it was infact da po-po... he got next to me at the next light, and honked at me... told me to slow down...... hehe

anyways, the engine sounds a lot different now, i dont hear the intake as much....
