#63668, "95 Talon to 97 Talon conversion?"




          

I am stuck with my car, so I'm going to keep sinking money into it. So I was wanting to know, I've already searched, will the 97 body panels, all of them (fenders, hood, doors, hatch, corner panels, rear bumper) all bolt onto the 95 body? If not, does anyone know how much modifying I would have to do to get them to fit, or is it even worth it? All of my panels have rust, or paint cracks in them, so I was wanting to redo the body. Thank you for any help.

The only different parts are the spoiler, front and rear bumpers, and the side moldings. Fenders, etc..are the same.
Heres some tips:
-For the side moldings, stock they have clips that clip them onto holes in the doors. I put the side moldings on my car...use 3m(dark grey automobile) 2 sided tape. DO NOT get the white two sided tape, it is junk and is not sticky.. Use the stuff i said to put the side moldings.
-Find some used 95/96 eclipse sideskirts/doorcaps...they flow excellent with the 97/98 talon body lines, and make the car look lower. I've got them, and they make the car look much fuller on the sides. For the doorcaps...do the same thing as I said above. use the 2 sided tape on them. Use the 2 sided tape on the top part of the skirts, and use screws underneath.
Hope that helps..
