NO.

Why Do you like the 99 headlights because there all one peice Because they make 1 peice headlights for your car and its a hell of alot less then trying to make the 99 front end fit on your car.Dont you think if it was that easy everyone would be doing it?

the hood/fenders/bumper won't line up and u'd need to replace them....

then the door's won't line up right with the fenders, need replacement... and it's just a never ending battle untill ur car is no longer an sn-95 but a new edge

Yeah, ive seen pictures of like a 97 cobra, that had an 03 cobra front end, I believe the fenders were original, but they were worked over to blend to the new bumper. It looked pretty cool, also looked like it had a lot of time in it.
