Yup, it's a bolt on process from what I've heard.

You heard wrong!

It's a totally different piece. The only way a 99-00 Si grill will "bolt" on is if you have the 99-00 Si

front bumpers
front fenders
hood
headlights
and bumper support

put it this way, if you like the 99 Si grill, you'll just have to buy the fenders, hood, headlights, and bumper to go along with it. that is one expensive grill!

Trust me it just dont pop in. I am in the middle of doing this conversion. Do a serch and you'll find more info ive posted on this. But the 99 si grill is bigger than the 96-98. You have to buy like they said before: fenders bump grill lights and hood plus do a lil mod to the ( two plates that hold the Screws/bolts that hold the bump in the middle not the two outter ones) Well at least as far as i know so far. I finally get my lights today.. Ill post pics later of when im finished.

They are different. I ended up making one (Home Depot style) instead for my girlfriend's EK.
