Default True/False: u need 99-00 rad support to add the SI front to a 97?

I was told u needed the radiator support from a 99-00 in order to put the 99-00 si front end on a 97. Is this true??? Cuz i thought it was bolt on the parts(hood,lights,fenders,bumper,grill) thats it.

false. but you need to cut a certain tab off of the bumper to make it fit proper without it. you'll cee when you have it in front of you, its a 2 minute affair
