all you need to do is remove a bit of metal....
do a search, I know one of these threads has some pics of what part of the metal needs to be removed... actually, those pics arn't on that thread anymore, I just looked....
switching out the rad support isn't easy at all, unless you can weld.
here's some help:
Heres the easiest way to fit the 99-00 on your 96-98 radiator support. Cut the tabs on the 99-00 bumper around the grill. They wont fit the radiator support. I cut those tabs off mine and the bumper fits fine. Its held on by the plastic clips on top of the grill and those screws in each fender. The tabs are behind the bumper so you can't even tell it was cut.
The tabs have those circles on them.
What needs to be trimmed off.
