gsx bumper on a rs

[mr arizona]

Can I interchange bumpers on my rs or is there more to it then just changing bumpers front and rear

Well what Year eclipse is it? whats the difference in the bumpers, i know if its a 95-96 eclipse you would need to buy the 97-99 eclipse head lights for the 97-99 bumper rear you need to buy the reverse lights and figure the wires out for the reverse lights.... Or am i wrong?

Assuming its a 2g then they are the same 95-96 2ga or 97-99 2gb minus the headlights and openings for them. The headlights will need to be changed as well if your swapping between the 2 styles..

Yes you can. All 2G front bumpers are interchangable. Rear bumpers between the Eclipse and Talon require some modification to fit, and require to change taillights as well. I beleive all 1G front bumpers are interchangable. Also all 1G eclipse rear bumpers are interchangable, and 1Ga and 1Gb Talon rear bumpers would need modification to swap.

True about the front bumper but the back bumper you just plug the wires into different spots but its just taking it off one light and putting it on another so it isn't needed. But for the front bumper you do need the 97-99 lights

I knew about the frnt just the back kind tricks me

Headlights are not exactly a must, but if you do not, the car will look ugly as sh**..

 

[2G-GS-T]

Lol so basically its best just to replace them haha
Get them Halo's if your gonna do it

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

It depends on the headlights, If you get a 2Gb Eclipse bumper you will need to swap to 2Gb headlights, If you get any 2G talon front bumper, as well as a 2Ga Eclipse bumper, you will not need to change the headlights.

 

[Bud92gsx]

But there is a gap if you swap bumpers and not swap the headlights..I've seen that a few times, I looks like crap..

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

That is true, but gofer swears that gap losers your underhood temps by a few degrees.

Make sure if its a 95-96 and your swapping the rear to a 97-99 you will need the longer wiring for the back up lights, but depending where you get the bumper it should have it there as long as it has the mount for the license plate. Other than that it bolts right on, I just did mine, takes a while but its worth it.
