    I agree with EVERYTHING you just said with one exception. Put on '99 headlights and turns. I think that would look amazing on a 2nd gen Stealth front.

    yes, and we've had that discussion time and again. truthfully, i believe you won because of the amount of detail & care you put into maintaining it; not because you stumbled on a "magic combo" of OEM body parts. the lines just don't flow, imho. while it's not quite as abhorrent as mixing 3k 1g/2g sides/front, it's still awful. the 1g stealth r/t front bumper is an especially good fit for the 1g r/t rear bumper...given the shape around the lower edge of each.

    p.s.

    em, post a pic of a 1g stealth with a 96 banana. FULL 1g, none of this "half & half" crap.

    p.p.s.
    steve, 99 lights will look great on your car. you should also fill in the lower creases all around.

    Local guy here in KC has a black 91 RT Turbo with a 96 spoiler on it. It looks good. All I have are partial photos of it, and the wing was still red. I'll try to get a full photo with the repainted wing.

    I'm with you on the mix-n-match stuff though. A lot of people don't seem to have the ability to see the car as a whole. You've got that 'love handle' on the bottom edge of the 1G stealth body parts, and then it abruptly ends at the door when you swap a 2G bumper on. It's even worse when you stick a 99 front end on it.
