I am undecided on the blue stripe. Most likely, I will remove what I have on the car and then see how it looks without the stripe and with the new gfx. If I like it, I'll keep it. If I want the stripe, I'll buy a new one.

Nope they will look horrible, you should give the gfx, and the car to me. 91-92 gfx always look nice.

I remember when I did that swap to my 89. Its a pretty straight forward swap until you get to the sideskirts. I had to use a saw to cut some of the metal off to get the 91-92 lower sideskirts to fit properly. But everything worked out good in the end and it looks much better.

*squint*

the only problem i have with the non 91-92 cars having the ground effects is when a real 91 car need new ones, the price is sky high..


mine are scratched on the underside, and the door one looks a lil "warped".... isnt that easy to see now, but once its repainted and buffed to shine, it'll show...

anyhoo... yours should look good... id ditch the bluw stripe and door ding strip too...

Yeah, but the people who swap pay the same amount as you do.

I don't know about the stripe yet. When I first bought the car, I was going to remove it. But then it grew on me and I like it. I'll see how it looks without it and then decide.

I got them from a guy on these boards. His username is LFN AT U and he lives in Crete, IL. He has a bunch of thirdgens that he parts out and a ton of parts. I'm doing a three way swap with xpndbl3. He's getting my gfx and giving his 82-84 style to Denny (LFN AT U), Denny is giving me the 91-92 Style. Of course, cash is also involved to even it all out. PM him though, he may have what you need.

So, you sold your (newer) old car, only to get an older car, so you could take your older car and make it look like the newer one you sold...
