What do I need?
I have officially decided that I want to put an 85-90 TA front on my Firebird. I know that I need the front nose and quarter fender ground effects, but do I also need the panels that are under the car too? Do I need to get the TA airdam as well? Is there anything else I need, or should know about when doing this?
I plan on just having the TA front on until I can find something for the sides, and I am leaving the rear groundeffects off because I like the look of no groundeffects from the rear.

I don't think you'll need the airdam...yours should work. According to my Keystone Crash Parts Digest, the reinforcements are the same. Should be an easy swap.

Thanks, it should be an easy swap then, after I drill some new holes.
One question though, where exactly would I drill the holes in the fender so that the ground effects line up with bumper?

The best way to do it would be to make a template off of an original fender. I think I have a pass side GTA fender loose that I could make one off of; PM or email your address and I'll mail it to you.
