Well I've decided to stick with the talon bumper so thanks for the help people emoji I have just a couple of questions left? Are the 97-98 fog lights for the talon bumper the same as the 95-96? because i have a set of the 95-96 fog lights but they dont fit. Also any ideas on how to fill in the gap i was thinking fiberglass but i was wondering how to actually use it to cover up the gaps lmk

I like the talon bumper better, probably because I've only actually seen like... 3 talons in my area, so they look more rare, lol.

im assuming u wanna fill the headlight gaps.....i would start filling in the gaps by cutting some mesh in the shape on the area you are trying to cover. make sure your bumper is sanded really good id use a 40 grit so that the mesh and fiberglass with stick. now with the mesh applied to the bumper start with some fiberglass mat and resin to conver the mesh part and curve it around on to the bumper. once that dries i would sand the mat down a lil so the next layers of actual fiberglass will adhere to it. just take the fiberglass and shape it with a putty on to the bumper of how the gap filled should look. sand it down, u may need to put a couple layers of fiberglass on it. then run some bondo on as the last layer and maybe some half time, sand and primer.

Or find some Talon headlights being sold by another dooshbag converting an already superior looking car to a wannabe Eclipse and swap with him. If he wants to lose the Talon front clip, he's probably not too bright in the first place (well, no sense of style anyways) and you could more than likely talk him down to a really good price. Why risk fucking up your new bumper skin to make a pair of headlights fit? Get the right headlights and do it up correctly.


Smart move on sticking with the Talon clip. So shexy.
