    I have a 2000 Tacoma and I was wondering how hard it is to swap the grille, headlights, bumper, etc. from a 1995-1997 Tacoma, I like the earlier front end much better than mine.

    4wd fenders are all the same year to year other than 01-04 fenders with flares having holes for the plastic fasteners.

    The radiator core support is slightly different from 95.5-97, then 98-00 and 01-04 might be the same, so you might have some issues getting things to line up, but it’s been done
