Hey people. Well sorry if this is already a topic somewhere.... I just thought it would'nt be. OK so here is my question, very important and if anyone could help asap I would LOOOOVE it!

I was wondering if it's possible to put a 2002 front Bumper on a 2000. NOW I had thought this was very possible because the headlights are the same, but when I hit a Semi Truck tire and had to get it replaced about 6-8 months ago, I asked and the shop doing the work said it would cost alot of money because there are different hook ups or something... I did not get a good explanation. I know some people have done this out there so I need some advice before taking it in to a shop because......

Today some idiot woman in a Honda Civic pulled out into on comming traffic because she did'nt want to wait to turn into a gas station and hit me head on!! The good news everyone is this..... her '04 Civic was in horrible shape compared to the neon!! HOOO RAHH neon! So anyhow, My hood needs to be replaced, front bumper, and my fender was pushed back so that I cannot open my passenger front door without scraping the fender.

So THANKS for any and all help and/or suggestions people! Your the best.

Sorry, I can't help - Just wanted to say Hi.

2000-2002 fits all the same. The shop rat is just on glue.

2003 fits just the same, only headlights need to be swapped.

i swapped my 00 to an 02 front witeout. it will work.

Why not just try it and see you dern white guy....gosh Idoit...(napolean dynamite moment)...Im just messing with you...How are the stereo and the lights working...or are they still working...Trust the other guys on here, and I do think they are just interchangeable...

They are the same. Headlights are the same, and the bumper will bolt right up.


hey!!! that sucks about your wreck

I took got hit by a 96 civic this week (wednesday). their car was in worse shape than mine, but they are both basically totaled (my daily, not the blue car)

so now the score is: neon (2) - civic (0)

glad to hear you are okay!

Yea, his car doesnt look to bad but the frames all out of wack the passanger door wont even open now. SUCKS, Not a good month for our Neons

Questiion Will and SRT-4 hood work on his 2000 Neon

yes

the hood is a slightly diff length, cant member if its longer or shorter, but it will work.

THANKS for all the input people, In all my years of neon owning I knew that this should be possible. It's just that THIS time around I wanted all of my knowledge ammunition with me when going to the shop to get it fixed. I appreciate the feedback so quickly.

Also.... as "Blue Dragon" said.. I had a question about an SRT-4 hood working on the 2000. I know the fender cut is the same around all 2000+ neons, I just did'nt know about the headlight part. I'm just trying to collect some info since I will be getting a new hood....MWWWWAAAAAAAUUUUUHHHAHAHAHA!! The only good thing a Honduh ever did was hit me!

kidk ass im sure he will like to hear that.

One more thing Will an 04 front bumper work in his car

my car rockin the 02 front

an 04 bumper will work but hed hafta change his headlights.

Good to know, I think things may be looking up.

good! and im glad to see witeout back!

Hey thanks buddy....I really appreciate that. You must have gotten really lonely doing all that post whoring without me.

haha... Thanks buddy. Naomi and I stopped to check in about it.

i havent been whoring it up much cuz i have not net access at home lol.

Ok not to be repetitious (sp?), but does anyone know if an srt-4 hood fits on a 2000 neon? I know the fender cuts are the same, but I believe the headlight cuts on the hood are different. Any deffinate answer would rock. Looks like the neon will be in the shop at the end of this week! Keep your fingers crossed.

hood will work regardless of lights... welcome back

I believe the cuts are exactly the same,.. it is just that the front of the SRT hood is a lil longer, my car is a 2000 witha SRT hood,. but i swapped headlights also,.. but it has the 00-02 kit front.

Awesome, thanks for all the help everyone.

Oh and thanks DB for the welcome!

Things are looking up for you. Hope my car get fixed before the next decade rolls round

Should be the exact same part, shouldnt it?

I really think we should have just called 2003+ 3gn

^I agree on that part...would be alot easier sometimes. Even if it is essentiallly the same car.

then us 03+ guys wouldn't be welcomed here

hmmm true...but still, I always wondered why it was always that 03+ were 2nd gens too, even though there were changes. I guess because the essenials didnt change.

Same frame, different tranny, different body parts, different interior. Only thing thats the same is the engine and the frame... I always thought it should be called 3rd generation. I guess since most parts are compatible thats why its lumped into one generation.

well, theres only a few body changes... front bumper and headlights, rear bumper and tails, and wheels if you want to count that. Interior is mostly the same too, diff steering wheel, dif interior colors. As far as performance, only major differences are plug connectors, the NGC, and the tranny.
