Do i need to get fenders aswell?

The lines of the stock fenders won't quite match up to the new header, but they will work. Problem is, that if you get the newer fenders and fender flares, then your fender flares won't match the back ones. :(

84-96 fenders are squared off on the top and it flows into that years header panel. the 97+ fenders are rounded on top. so if you use old fenders with 97+ panel the square fenders will flow right into the rounded it will work but it looks halfassed. I'm sure you could sand down and fill the 97 panel to have the right lines and blend it in or something. or you could just keep the more badasser looking older front end and save a bunch of time.

Yeah, what they said. It's not that the fender won't line up, it's that the lines of the fender won't match the front header.
