And also thinking about taking off that pin stripe that really bugs me. Tell me what you guys think if I should keep the way the car is or do a conversion.

I know a guy who has the front bumper and side pieces for the 97 upgrade. He gave me a great deal on the rear bumper. Let me know if you want his info.

Stay with 97+. The car look alot better except with AC kit. Here is my 95 with 97 just got painted but not clean yet. Towing to muffler shop for some work. Front bumper not install.

Lose the kit for sure because the car looks clean otherwise.
