Default Will firehawk hood fit?

Im going to get my ws6 hood repainted due to some fading and clear coat issues. The guy im taking it to says he has a firehawk hood ready for paint that he could trade me. He's trying to tell me that i will have to change out my front bumper to use this hood. I think he's wrong and he tried telling me its true. So whats the word? Can i put a firehawk hood on my 98 formula ws6 without changing bumpers and other B.s.? Thanks for any and all useful info.

Yes it will fit but I think you have to trim the bumper some.

Edit: good info here

That's what I would do If I had a WS6 formula.
