uMmm 96-98 headlights won't fit 99-00 headlights. They look almost the same..But they're not.

96-98 have differant, headlights, grill, bumper, fenders, and tail lights. tho the tail lights are just a color scheme differance. everyhing else its actually size and shape, etc differance. ie. the bumper on 99-00 has the "faux brake vents" and the headlights are more aerodynamic. u will notice the diferances, u can just search ebay for oem parts, like headlights, and you will notice

The "faux brake vents" you're talking about, is that where it has the grill in the center, and the two slots on the side? IF so, would it fit a 96 and how much would it cost?

Take a look at a 99-00 front bumper, they don't just pull off they are holes in the bumper, you can't install them into yours.

I know, I was just wondering if the 99-00 bumpers have the holes in the side. If so, how much does a 99-00 bumper cost?
