This is for a T/A, but maybe it'll help a bit.

Re: 93/97 to 98/02 conversion

HEY MAN!

Here is a list of the things (Im thinking off the top of my head)

-bumper absorber 100.00
-bumper
-fenders
-headlights
-headlight brackets I believe its 5
-bumper brackets
-reinforcement bar
-fender brackets (I used the ones on the old fenders, just rivet them on)
-fiberlass bracket that runs in the front
-hood

My project was a pain in the a$$ b/c my parts were aftermarket instead of dealer,(of course I saved alot of money) One problem I ran into was that the new body fenders have a bar running though them, while the old ones dont. Only the dealer fenders come with this bar, I had to make some out of sheet metal. Although I spent about 1800.00 dollars I think it was well worth it, thats because I dont plan on getting rid of the car, but if you plan on getting rid of it in the near future I dont recomend you doing this conversion. Just because you will not get what you paid for the conversion. It looks hell of a lot better though, I wish I has pics!
yea but once it comes to the parts thats all the main things you will need
anymore questions let me know Ill me more than glad to help
