you could find the center peice (the part on your trunk lid) at any local junkyard and you can get the corner peices at www.corksport.com

How much did it cost you to get them from Jonas? Because if it cheaper then Corksport, I might be interested. Thanks.

I think I can answer this one for Bruce. Yes, they will. You will only need to get the center piece from a 97-98 model at the junk yard or something.

There are not any. Only the custom made ones. If you happen to know who custom makes them, and have a lot of money, then buy them.

and what about the 97 front grille, can i swap that onto my car?
NOPE. [list=1][*]95's have a plastic piece that goes under the headlight and it then meets the grill in the middle. On the 97s there is no plastic piece under the headlights
[*]95 grill has a curve that meets that plastic piece mentioned above and 97 don't. The grill is straight angle down[/list=1]
