sure, thats really the only thing worth doin with an rs or gs... as far as the front bumper goes it will be a direct bolt-up EXCEPT for the fact that the headlights are different between the 95 and 97 eclipses, you can get a good pair of ebay for cheap, thats what i did and they work great.  also as far as the interior how far were you willing to go? just paint of full re-upholstery?  if it's just paint, then i suggest krylon's FUSION paint, it's specifically made to bond to plastic.  and as far as the taillights go, i agree with seb. with all of that i'd say you'd have a pretty nice lookin car.. Also i can't tell from your picture, but a good set of rims would really set your car off too... hope that helped

yes, for the 97 bumper (97-99), you will also need to get 97-99 fenders, and 97-99 head lights to make the bumper fit.   but IMO the 97-99 body styling is one of the best looking cars on the road!

what?? fenders too? you only  need the headlights for it to fit 

nvm, i wasn't thinking of the mounting to the fender, i was thinking about a body kit where you drill your own holes to match the fender ones... but even so, couldn't you just do the same thing to the new bumper and save money?

i'm lost....   do what to the front bumper?    you have to have the fenders b/c the 95-96 don't match up w/ the head lights from the 97-99.

Just dont buy the ebay brand of the front bumper. It sucks (the one with the triangle where the Mitsu sign should be.

ron the 97-99 lights will line up with the fender... i have a 95 eclipse with 97 projectors on it and the fender line-up is fine... the only difference is by the inside of the headlights, it's different...
