Re: Ground Effects

The 84 Aero Package goes along the entire perimeter of the car. It looks like the 85 and up, only not as tall. For 82 and 83, there were trim pieces that were only a small section in front of the wheels rather than full length. I'm not sure if those were still available in 84.

Re: Ground Effects

It was my understanding that that the aero package became available in '83 and was standard T/A issue in '84. '82 and most '83's (from what I've seen) had the little wheel "spats".

Re: Ground Effects
