    This ^^^ plus a few tips.lol

    the difference (fitment wise) between both bumpers is that the 98 is smaller around than the 02 so if you just put it on it would just sag off. what i did was put spacers on the bolt behind the bumper so it kinda just pulled/stretched the lip back like half to 3/4 of an inch back on both sides. = damn near perfect fitment and you dont really notice all that muvh the extra lip on the sides.

    The gentleman that welded these for me made it so the shaft from the 98 corolla fit inside the 90 corolla for rigidity. I'd say these are better than OEM.

    oh lol didnt think about that. actually mine could have just stayed there too but it was more convenient to take them out to have them welded. by the way, did ya know you have to drop the subframe to be able to take off your lower control arms?
    i still have a cat. its not straight pipe all the way through.
