I really like what a lot of 98-00 guys do with all clear turn signals and headlights, paint matached 4x4 grille, and 01-05 bumper with 01-03 or 04-05 valence and fogs. Sets it apart from the usual 01-03 swap.

Since 98-00 is what i can afford most likely, that'll be the next one i get. but i want to keep that front end and do an 04 bumper and valence.

on another note, I like the beginning of the SAS :p.

nah i just took the door panel out. I cut the shape of the window from the outside with 1.5" or so extra on the bottom and trimmed as necessary on the bottom edge once the top was lined up. gotta have a good eye, steady hand, and good razor to do the top edge
