I'm about to swap out my bumper for the 97-99 front bumper. I am going to get the bumper where I got all my other 97-99 products, from autodirectsave.com. So, what do I need? Is the front bumper the only thing I'll need? The site shows a diagram that have the filler panel and bumper reinforcement. Do I need that or just the front bumper cover? I just want to make sure. I know that a few of you 95-96 guys have done the swap, so I would appreciate your help. Oh, I want to get the bumper with the front light holes, so I could put in the 97-99 factory fogs in there. How much would it cost for the fogs? I checked, but not sure if this website sell the fogs.

ok for se conversion....front bumper....front grill...and fog light kit.....everything should line up...except for one thing....there is a bracket next to the headlight....that bracket will be too high for the 97-99 bumper....either modify it or just rip it off like i did...there are other gizmo that the 97-99 has but it's not necessary such as shock absorber and reinforcement thingy's and shiit like that....

Does the same apply for a GXE? Or is there other stuff i'd need?
Its exaxctly the same. I dont know why he stated SE. The only thing different with the SE is that the grill is body colored versus the Chrome.
I did this with my max and its a gxe,...only now i have an SE grill

he stated SE because SE is the ONLY trim that comes with front bumper PRECUT for fog lights.

98 will fit....what i'm in the middle of doing is converting my 1995 se for a 1997-1999 se front end. i want to change my front lights for a 1997-1999 1 peice light...hopefully all my stuff comes soon
i just did a conversion for my friend all is needed is the front bumper fog lights with the brackets because the fogs are different in 95 and 97 and a grill because that 95 grill is plain ugly
you might need to get the grill that fits the year of the bumper...i had a 99 bumper with 99 grill...wrecked and had a 96,ithinkthatstheyear, bumper put on and the 99 grill sticks out bout half an inch..it doesnt bother me, im just going to replace it later
