ok, I have quite a few plans for my 95 ga such as body kit, springs, ect. I have noticed that the 96-98 grand am's have a lot more to offer in the direction of body kits, plus they have altezza's.

i know to change from a 95 to 96 for the taillights you need 96 bumper and trunk. but if i get a 96 body kit, and a 96 trunk, will the body kit fit?

also, would the front bumper body kit fit on my 95? would i need 96 projectors? 96 hood?

basically, what is EVERYTHING i would need to make my 95 have a 96 body?

for the rear you would need the trunk,lights,possibly rear quarter panels(might wanna check on that) and for front,headlights,fenders,and hood. But Andy's Auto Sport has the same body kit for the 92-95 as they do for the 96-98. There are no 96 projectors,its a clear headlight. The only projectors are ones you prolly saw on Wes's or Flatline's red Grand Am and those are actually 92-95 Honda Civic 4dr projectors,and they are not a direct bolt on or perfect fit.

sign up on the AEDCentral board and talk to a guy named "pontiacga" he has a 92-95 that he did a 96-98 conversion on... and go to gmperformancetuning and look up "turboquad4" as he has a 95 as well and is doing a 96-98 conversion on the rear

thats basically what i want. 96-98 altezzas. so can i just order 95 front and side skirts, and a 96 tail body kit? then get a 96 trunk and some altezzas?

Don't encourage 95GAinFLA. You'll give him a huge head....well, larger than it already is.

not that i am in anyway tryin to make fun of you or anything, but it might be more cost effective to just buy a 96-98 model

i was going to get a 96, but the door locks kept locking (when in drive) after they were already locked. i couldnt stand the clicking.

i would have waited for them to fix it, but i NEEDED the car that day.
