Ok, I get get flamed for this, but I've searched and searched and I havent been able to find the answer that I'm looking for. So here it goes, will a rear bumper from a 03-05 LS sport with the molded in lip fit on a 00? I wasnt sure if they had the same mounting holes, etc. Any help on this would be very appreciated so I'm going to thank you all ahead of time. I know that the 03-05 bumper also has the filler plates molded in so, if mine came off would it just go right on?
One more question....would Import fighter sides for a 95-99 fit a 2000?
Thank you for anyones help.

yes
yes
any cavalier rear bumper 95-05 will fit on any cavy and 4drsunfire 95-05..
and sides for 95-05 cavalier AND sunfire will fit on any 95-05 cavalier and sunfire..
^^ he isnt talkin about front ends
he means rear bumper and sides skirts
but yeh u can also swap front ends if ur into something else
yep, just need to deal with the filler panels below the lights.
what do you mean by deal with them? Dont they come attatched to the 03-05 bumpers? And does anyone know of any places where you can still get the import fighter side skirts?
As for the import fighter side skirts get ahold of Karo at www.carcustoms.net they run bout 180-200 shipped each..
bout best price ur gonna find new.. if ur lucky ull find someone selling a used set.. i mean i got my used set for 50 bucks even though one was broken.. still beats paying close to 400 for both sides.. now i just have to spend for 1..
and yes in the 03+ rear bumpers teh filler panels are molded into the bumper. just remove ur rear bumper then the filler panels and then the bumper will bolt right in place
Here's a crappy picture of the bumper of my 00'. I had a bit of trouble getting everything to fit right......I think mostly because it's a flimsy bumpers.com knockoff.
My 03 filler panels didn't have a place to mount them like on the 95+. Also, the top part of the filler panels tuck in under the tail lights. I was thinking the 03 tail light bar had something to that helped secure them. I ended up having to use some screws under the tailights to secure my 03 filler panels down.
I'm not sure how the filler panel setup is on a real GM bumper though. Have you done the conversion Manta, or just assuming?

Pretty much assuming considering there all same unibody.. i havent spent them alot of time lookin at them, all i noticed was the side bolts and the fender bolts were the same.. and i didnt think to look at the filler panels and taillights.. i planned on getting it but i got the IF Rear instead..
Cool. I was just curious if there were any differences between my "knockoff" compared to the original GM bumper. Mines pretty flimsy. Also, the fender well holes lined up? I had a gap as if I was missing some kind of bracket or something.....I ended up getting a piece of rubber hose and a long screw to fill the gap and secure it. If I remember, I also had to do some trimming on the crushguard. Just heads up for future installers.
