anything 96-2000 should fit your car.

The whole front end is different between 96-98 and 99-00. Along with getting everything you need, 99-00 headlights should fit 96-98 but require a tab to be cut.
That is if my memory serves me correctly.

96-98 front bumper/headlights/fenders are all slightly different than 99-00
you can swap entire front ends, but a piece of the bumper support/rad support must be trimmed to put 99-00 on a 96-98
coupe/sedan/hb all share front ends also
you cannot swap single pieces in, they will not fit
