Anyone know?
 
If I can fit a 01-04 edge front bumper on my 94? I think it would look kind of cool only problem is none of the junk yards in my area have a wrecked one i could test fit/ use as a template to fab up some brackets if needed before I would buy an all new bumper and valance

ive heard of people cutting off the frame horns and welding newer ones on, or modifying the existing horns for the new bumper

dibs on your current bumper lol

I've always wanted to see a 3rd gen with a 4th gen bumper. I think one way to fix the gap would be to add some painted plastic to the clip to make a surround for it (if that makes any sense at all)
