Pictures arent working
Fixed!
Sweet! Ive got a complete 1995 body kit in my garage attic I was going to put on my 1989...........never got around to it.
The front bumper is definitely the hardest part of the swap. It took two of us 3.5 hours.
Looking good bud :icon_eek:
I think it looks pretty good myself. I think this valance won't be breaking anytime soon and there is more of this style out there if needed replaced.
Can't believe how easy the swap was though. Helps when basically you have 2 parts cars.

Jon it looks better all cleaned up. Is that black side markers? I look at the pics about every 2 hours. I think I really want to do mine now. I gotta rip the whit car down for the bumper support and headlight panels. Grr I envy you.
Looks better too with the fogs on. I take it you got bulbs right away. Haha
Bought the bulbs and the nightshade at the same time! Its the only thing on the reciept!
Now I have to buy headlights

The TGP valance won't break if you avoid curbing it. My black car still has the original valance on it. ;) I don't drive my car to certain places because I know the entrances are steep and I'll break the hell out of the valance. At some places around the city, I've nearly scraped the valance on my 1993 GP(BYP kit) and it has 4x4-like ground clearance. :laugh:
Agreed. Just don't run over curbs or park the front end so close to the curb and you'll be fine.
am i the only person who thinks that he just did a really terrible thing to a TGP, you just removed the only unique exterior part......not to mention it looks completly out of place to the rest of the cladding...i just coughed up the 260$ for one at the dealer and had it and my bumper painted. Im not having any issues, just dont ram curbs
No you're definitely not the only person who thinks that. I get a lot of crap for it, but I don't care. Its my car and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the new look. The rest of the car will get b4u.
but its gonna look like a dime a dozen 94-96 car, bleh I see them on every other street corner

NICE!
holy crap that was quick! Looks good!
Nice job dude! I am not against your conversion since when you have multiple cars it gets kind of boring. That and mini quads look better in my opinion. I am more partial to the earlier style that still utilizes the old valence but hey lookin good.
I can't say I would ever do this swap, but if you like it then roll with it! It's your car and there is definitely more 94-96 fronts to be had. FWIW, I think a clean, well maintained 94-96 GP looks good too.
Yeah looks good. I have always liked the round fog lights of the 94-96 vintage cars. But what i would really like to do to my TGP is store the stock bumper and get two additional front bumpers one from a TGP and one from a 94-96 and splice them together right below the beltline somehow. Meld them together so you have the round fog lights and lower valance section of the newer cars and the 5-6 character lines and headlights/grille of the stock TGP.. sort of hard to explain and probably a lot of work but think that would be ideal. Does the 94-96 valance/bumper provide enough air movement for the TGP?
Tim :icon_cool:
That would be slick a lot of work but very slick.

Not enough to feed the trans cooler. I moved mine in front of the condensor
the tgp valence is special and should never be swapped for the 94-96 valence
Congratulations on forming an opinion.
94-96 is by far best design for looks. TGP has more function tho.
they are all equally important: they prevent imminent transaxle ass-plosion.
LOLworthy
