i know they changed the interiors on the 01-04's so i'm not 100% sure it would since they may have made tiny little tweaks to the outside as well...why not this one its over half the price too http://cpwstore.carpartswholesale.co...94965605&Nty=1

thats just the bottom piece but I believe it will fit. My friend has one of those plastic covers on his 04, and it looks identical to mine.

not sure its totally gonna fit,
01-04 has a different bumper, its smaller and has a single cover for the upper and lower halves.
the 97-00's have a lower fascia, not a bumper cover.

ok i checked my sources, it 'should' clip over the stock steel bumper on your 97, i thought the newer ones were smaller, but i believe i was incorrect..

its because the one peice covers were not available until 01 that throws off the numbers
