I found that to be true also in 1996 so it is more than likely what yours is

your paint code EC is currant red,i looked in our paint book and couldnt find it in 98. i looked in 97 and found it. a lot of times some vehicles are titled as 98 but were actually built in 97, so some vehicles got out before they stop producing that color

hey j3alz i checked on a 96 chrome bumper, they said that the chrome bumpers all have a plastic strip that surrounds the upper half of the bumper. so there are holes in the bumper, you didnt say if yours had that or not. it'll be about $180-190, thats my cost.
