99 Bumper on a 97?

I have a 97 Civic LX sedan and here in the near future going to be replacing some body parts that are dinged up pretty good. I wanted a bumper so I could have the fog lights (OEM not aftermarket) but never saw one for my year model. I came across 99 bumpers and from the looks of it they match up perfectly except for the 99 having the locations for the oem fog lights. So the question is will a 99 bumper fit a 97.

Thanks in advance

Not so easy it will fit but you will need 99 hood, fenders, and lights.

As for fog lights there kits that will fit the 96 - 98 in the lower bumper opening.

Re: 99 Bumper on a 97?

ah ok so now it all makes sense! thanks for the help man i really appreciate it. lip kit looks dang good on those too might invest in that as well. definately not ever putting a body kit on it. just want to keep it clean and simple and most importantly mechanically sound. this car will probably out live me anyway so want it to look sharp while i'm still alive haha.
