Hello all i am new to the site, just picked up a 97 Firebird with a 5-speed in it and love the car. I also love the look of the 98 and above firebirds and was wondering if it is possible to put a front bumper, hood, and the headlight covers on mine. I hope this can work or do i have to change out the fenders also to make it fit. I hope someone has already done this or knows if it will work. Thanks!

i know someone has done it to there camaro. search for it and see what you can come up with.
if you dont find anything, i'll try to help you out with what i can remember -
Thanks Guru I found something like that where someone wanted to do the change. I am worried about the fenders i hope i dont have to change them hopefully just mold the front bumper. I hope it turns out nice, my friend has a 02 WS6 all black and i will go measure some things out and see if it will fit. ThanksComment

im not too sure but i think you will have to remove the two front fenders. im thinking camaro here but it applies. its not a hard task. the fenders and nose comes off farely easilyComment

They make a conversion kit, but I can't recall the website off hand. Keep searching, you'll find something.
Sorry I could't help more, but there ARE KITS TO DO IT!
I think they ran about 3,000 or so, though.Summer:<br />1999 Black Pontiac Firebird Coupe<br />5-speed, T-Tops, Chrome Rims, TA Hatch, Reflective Decals.<br /><br />Winter:<br />2000 Silver Grand Am GT<br />Reflective Black Badge Overlays, chromeComment

you'll need new fenders, a hood, hood hinges, front bumper assembly, new headlight assemblies, among other things...mcG<br />aim=endlive<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/endlive\" target=\"_blank\">97 firebird</a> ~ wreckedComment

one of those other things being the 98+ tail lights. and if your car doesn't already have fog lights, you'll need to install the fog lights and all that and run wire and install a switch.Originally posted by mcG:

I did it to mine. Just get all the parts from GM, try find a good parts guy who will give u the wholesale price (that's what i did). And get your hood from somewhere else like suncoast creations cause it's a lot cheaper than a OEM hood from GM.
Oh ya, and get all your headlight assemblies and misc parts from salvage yards.
good luck.Perry V.<br />\'97 Chameleon Bird w/ too many toys to list.<br /><a href=\"http://www.geocities.com/umvagia0\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.goecities.com/umvagia0</a>Comment
