Hey winners, I've search to no avail. Are the 96-98 and 99-00 fenders the same? The reason why I'm asking is because I'm putting together a 99-00 conversion for my car.

Thanks,
J

 

no

Conversion consists of fenders, hood, grill, bumper, and lights. For a more factory look, you need the rad support too.

 

no they are not the same
you'll need to change the whole front end

 

I guess you got your answer, haha.


Many have done this conversion without using a 99-00 rad support, but the fitment will be a bit better with the correct rad support. Although in the defense of people that did NOT use it, I have seen quite a few pictures where things lined up very well, and I would have never known that they're still using the 96-98 rad support.

Good luck! This is a very easy conversion that can be completed in an hour or so, after you have all the parts. Installing the 99-00 radiator support will take a bit longer and it is better to have it welded/bolted in place rather than just bolted.
