As you can see the stock corner lenses do fit.
The key is the fenders if you want the corner lights to fit. I have heard of folks using the stock radiator support, but why bother when you can get the whole front end kits that come with it for cheap. It's more expensive to piece one together than it is to buy one whole from my explorations online.

Someone here said that LHT can get the SiR front ends for comperable prices to 650 dollars (you would have to add tax of course). I'd really like a SiR front end as well, I am sure I can get a pretty penny for my "old" front end with it's brand new lights (black projectors/corner lights and yes, all 6 pieces), perfect fenders, perfect hood and average front bumper.

My front end. I'd swap someone straight up for a SiR front end. Over 450 dollars worth of new lighting.

but im not for the look
i want the light rims
might just run steelies
Steelies are not light. I did the good old "arm scale" and deemed my spare 14" steelie w/tire much heavier than the rota w/tire. If you want light, try the HX wheel. I dunno what you are building the car for, so I cannot recomend a decent tire for you.
