Difference between 99-01 and 02-03

Difference between 99-01 and 02-03

Postby xavier » Sun Feb 19, 2006 5:43 pm

Im getting together a list of parts that need to be replaced because of my accident.

Are the 99-01 hoods the same as 02-03?

Are the 99-01 fenders the same as 02-03?

Are the grills the same?

Im trying to decide if i should try to make my front end an 01 or just buy the 02 replacement parts. I have an 02 but the lack of parts is getting me down.

Fenders are the same. Everything else Rich described is correct.

Why does everysite list them as the same??? What's different about them? The corners round out the same.

So are the fenders the same or not...seems about 50/50 i this thread. Every website lists the fenders as 99-03 which leads me to believe that they are the same. I think the slope at which the headlight and corner light meet is different

The fenders are the same no question. The only difference is the bumper, headlights and the cornerlights have a different reflector design but same shape.
