Hi, I'm buying a '93 Impreza tomorrow and it needs a new hood. Since I'm new to Imprezas, I was wondering what all would need to be changed to use a '97+ hood?

It looks to me like the grill would need to be changed to the newer style, and maybe the headlights too. Do the fenders also HAVE to be changed to use the later hood? What about the radiator support? Also, will a later style bumper fit without changing any of these other pieces?

There are some valuable posts on NASIOC...

Hood, grille and lights will need to be replaced as a set.

Thanks for the GREAT info!

the hood will fit without changing the lights out, however, there will be some overhang and things just wont look 100%
