looks good man, I have 97 clear headlights in my 95.  They stick out a touch but if you don't know than you don't see it.

Nice work, car looks great. My suggestion would be to raise the front lip of the hood even with the fenders above the headlights, little gap = cooler engine bay.

I like that!  Grin  I'm actually right in the middle of doing the same thing.  You need a fiberglass hood and fenders, get clear turn signals, white rims, & dark tint, and that will look F*cking awesome.   You should also have filled in you Dodge Ram on the front. I don't like them. Cut-out the cross section, if your good with fiberglass, so you can repair the holes.  You might try a different spoiler too, but not one that is goofy looking. Ever concider doing the rear-end too? I'm gonna do both. Check out my page at cardomain.com/redstar_gearhead.

I could sell you my bumper, but it busted up pretty bad. The original owners bottomed out the front end, many times, and broke it in three places.  Once on each side and in the middle-kinda.  Then they did a bad-fix w/o setting the break right.  I've only done a cheap repair w/ a plastic epoxy that works well. I suggest finding another though. There is a salvage here in Tahlequah, OK that has 4 '95-96 Avengers.  This is why I'm doing the '96-97 conversion.  I like the aerodynamic bumper.

I am shaving the ram on the front, but I'm doing the '96-97 conversion & cutting out the cross section too.  Then when I get it painted I will fill in the ram, removing sidewall molding, possiblely doing a rear-end conversion, and rearranging "24VALVE V6 & Avenger" letter placement.
