Okay i have some problems. Okay well the ls has the (my bad no v6 im dumb) and leather interior, but the 97 has a better front end, i like the grill and the front bumper. Okay, are the 97-98 models. . well is it just the front bumper that is different or some other exterior stuff, i dont care about interior, just exterior, Your help will be greatly aprreciated. Because i kinda want leather. . although the silver 97 is so clean. i have not seen the 95 in person yet.

94-98 Galants you mean?

They all have a 4 cylinder... LS and ES bascially came with additional options/extras the S and DE models didn't have (leather, moonroof, power windows/locks/etc)

97-98 have a different front bumper cover and different taillights than the 94-96. 94-96 have RX-7 style tails that go all the way across the back bumper/trunk, whereas the 97-98 have a talilight per side.

Front bumper on the 97-98 is more aggressive than the 94-96, and also has grills that flow with the T-bar (between the headlights), whereas the 94-96 grills groove inward.

Hope that helps.

I have a 1996 and would never trade it for a 97 or 98.

front end looks better on 97/98, rear looks better on 94-96

LOL sorry about the v6 thing guys LOL. . i think i must have read some BS somewhere cause i could have sworn i read it, but anyway, i chose the 95, the taillights looks cool, the car has the same mileage as the 97, and i mean it has leather interior. . .Ill just come up with a way to make the front end nice. . .maybe custom grill, and someway to seperate foglight area from mouth LOL, i bet it can be done, ill try. But yeh i mean im 17, need a first car, money is a issue, so i went with the cheaper one cause of the tail lights and the leather https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif i love leather.

yep just bolts, theres a sticky tutorial on how to get the bumper off in the 7g customization forum.

you will also need the 97/98 header bar(metal piece betweeen headlights and hood)
