1994-1998 Sports had the same grill as a non-Sport. 1999 was the year the Sport had it's own grill. Anything that will work on a 1994-1998 truck will work on a Sport of that era.

I actually called Westin, and I think they are pretty mainline, and they said, 'Sorry sir, we do not have one that will fit that model... :SHOCKED: I find that hard to believe... but that's what I was told.
I guess I need proof of this before I get a $700 hunk of metal shipped up to Canada...
Looks like TenneSST has a handle on it, but there's always the option of customizing it and fabbing something to fit. Sometimes a little creativity and spare material work just as well. Welcome to the forum, BTW, and good luck in finding what you're looking for!

Wermbang... Those pics help... kinda! Has me even more perplexed as to why the Grill Gaurd is exempt from the listings on the 'SPORT'. I don't really see any logical reason for the omission. I wish I could just get my hands on one, and dry fit it before I buy one. No one stock them up here, I find. I see my truck in back in the parking lot outside, so I will get some pictures this morning of it, and maybe get some insight from you guys... maybe even some ideas on sprucin it up a little.
My exterior wish list is this..
Grill Gaurd
Nerf bars
Hard top tonneau or doube/triple rollbars (although, I bet roll bars are not used much anymore...
All in black.
Maybe down the road those LED light kits, cuz the plastic is kinda smoky.
I have a 98 Sport and have used parts mark except sports with out any problem. My front air dam is an example, it fit with no problems. They didn't change the sport body style until '99. The '94-'98 sports were just decals, painted bumpers, fogs and a little more hp. They had the same body's, grills and style bumpers as the standards.

Every other site I have seen has said a general 'Not for Sport', whereas this site concures what you knowledgable fellas already told me.
Bahahahaaaa!!! I thought, 'Good job, Werm... you put the picture of my truck up in full size... good for you! I could done tha.... wait a tick... HE PAINTED MY BUMPER!!!'
Brilliant, Dewd! I was talkin to my wife about it, and she says 'Fire up your photoshop!'... I'm like... meh, I can visualize it... now I don't have to!
I actually REALLY hate the mirrors that are on it. I would like to find out if I can put new ones on it. Are there after market Black ones... maybe flip out or extendable ones?
Yeah just look for the tow mirrors. They will mount the same, but not sure about the power part as there is supposedly different wiring from what I have read.
Really like the painted bumper!
Did you spray that yourself or have it done somewhere?
The paint on my truck is horrible and I am really close to just going camo with multiple cans of spray paint!
Anything better than the fade on hood and different color fender that I replaced!
