I've got an 97 SE and want to have a dual exhaust,well dual tips coming out of one muffler with a Y pipe and the SE's have only one cut out in the bumper and the GT's of course have two...Would i be able to just buy a GT and install it on mine or is there a moddification? Im not worried about the molding on it cuz my car is white and you don't see the "ribbing" or molding very well.

No... there's no modification, but your car is gonna look like crap. Without the GT front, it's just going to look like sh*t I.M.O.

No there is no modification necessary, it's an easy swap. And no, I wouldn't worry about what it will look like without the GT front, that won't make a difference. The only thing that I WOULD worry about is the molding/ribbing on the side of the car clashing with the molding on the rear bumper. But if you say you won't mind that than I say go for it. It's an easy way to get the dual outlets for the exhaust. If you want in the future, you can always pickup some used moldings and even a front fascia if you want to change them.

Yeah the ribbing on a white car is very hard to tell exactly if it matches and plus right now im just looking for a bumper that will help me use a dual setup,im getting a body kit later on so it doesn't matter,i just simply wanted to know if it would fit not opinions.

lol... It wouldn't be my Avatar's heading if I didn't know what it meant... Sorry to go off-topic, but I could probably put you under the table with all the dirty, nasty sexual moves I know! :P (and yes, I'm very proud of knowing so many!)
