Oh and also You might have to take the little fender things off, other than that it should be a direct bolt up. Im assuming this because its a direct bolt from a 89 - 91+ bumper.

what toahk said. Its a direct bolt up from an 89 to a 91+ so the same should hold true, backwards. The pignose isn't bad looking its just "different"

Pignose is way better I love it lots more there than the 91-94 bumper so simple.

Where in the original post did he ask for opnions???

You should be able to do this pretty cheap I bet as a lot of folks would prob. Trade you for your chuki front end. In case you care, I like the pignose just fine espicially with the front lip.

theres no way a 91-up looks better. It's just plan and probe looking. I love my pignose. Whoever doesnt want them can send them all my way.

Try a Pig nose with the lip and that will even rule more. I love my PIg Nose Everyday and night. I took so many pics that my GF think I am crazy.:)

I would love to have the se lip on my pignose. I think that just finishes off the car myself. I love my pignose. I'll never own a 240 that isn't either a pignose or a 97-98.
