97+ front clip conversion ?
I finally was able to get a 97 front clip the other day. Unfortunately I won't be putting it on till the summer. Is this going to be a direct swap or will there be some modification needed and if so what will it be?

There will be some modifications need and if i remember correctly you will have to change your fenders.. Theres a guy on the fab section that has done it three time with different front ends. Turquoise something is the name of his rig.

you don't have to change the fenders. the clip will fit with the original ones. only thing is the newer model fenders are rounded and will look nicer with the new clip.
the only thing you will need to mod is the signal lights. the new clip has a two bulb system where the older one is only a single bulb.
apparently it's easy enough to do and quite straight forward.
i have had the new clip and fenders sitting in my garage for year or so. just haven't felt the need to do the swap yet.
