Default Questions about Front bumper

I'm new to Rangers so don't really know much about them. I bought a 99 Ranger and wanted to know if the front bumper that has the round holes for the foglights would fit on mine and where can I find one for sale at a good price, also wanted to know if the honeycomb grille found on the 2001 Rangers and the headlight would also fit on a 99 Ranger without any or minor modifications. I pretty much want my front end to look like a this fellow forum members

I think the only way it will work is if you do a Whole Front End Swap..

Thanks casper, how did you go about doing it, is it just a direct fit? where did you purchase the bumper from?

It bolts right on, just make sure you have 01+ bumper brackets. The chrome bumper is from certi-fit and the valence is OE ford from the dealer
