Default bumper lights.....

anyone know if the ones on ebay that are smoked look good or not. If so is there any difference between the 97+ and earlier bumper lights???

yes the 97+ have a different shape , if you just want to smoke them pick up some VHT Night Shades / or go to the model shop and get some Testors "Transparent black" used for tinting model windows...

Default also

I know that this is a little of topic but how hard would it be to fiberglass the bumper to make it look like a 97. I really dont want to spend 300 - 400 on a new bumper. I know trhat it would be easier to get the 97 but I just dont want to fork out that money right now

It would be near impossible ... The bumper is polyurathane and the fiberglass will not bond well to it ... Since the shapes are different the additional shaping would be near impossible ... A used 97+ bumper can be found from yards for $60/$100 or a bodykit bumper can be had

Default the reason i ask.....

is because the bumper is held on with zip ties in places and the screws/bolts wont come out in other places.
