Re: 83 camaro bumper and hood swap with 85 bumper/hood

It will be a direct swap. The 85+ bumper cover will fit just the same as your 83. If your car doesn't currently have ground effects, you will need to drill the holes in the fenders for them. The hood (the Iroc one with louvers) will fit, even with the 83 front end.
