CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG...
first off, i have a 98 talon tsi

is it true that to change the front bumper, all i would have to do is get teh eclipse 97-99 headlights (factory or not) and a factory front bumper (at that time, a body kit piece for an eclipse would fit).

to change the rear bumper, i have no idea where to start

what you need are the Eclipse headlights, eclipse tail lights, eclipse FB, side skirts, and RB. What Im not sure on is wheather the hood would have to be switched as well due to the headlights.

you will need:

97-99 Eclipse headlights
97-99 Eclipse taillights
97-99 Front and Rear Bumper
97-99 Side skirts (W/ DOOR PIECES)

and if you want to go nuts like I did with my GS:
Weld up the holes from your Talon spoiler, buy a gst/gsx spoiler, drill the holes, and mount it. Then you have a SICK exterior set-up!

The hood does not have to be replaced.

yea the headlight and front bumper part is right, for the rear you need eclipse taillights (any year) and you need the rear bumper and reverse lights. there are also three brackets in the back. on the talon the middle one is lower, and on the eclipse there all the same height, so you can either mount the middle one higher or get long bolts.

hope these help too
