Would the GFX on the T/A, I think '85, fit on my '82 T/A? I'm thinking of the one with the driving lights. Modification wouldn't be a problem. If it doesn't fit, then I can just make one out of fiberglass.

hey i was gonna do the same thing before i decided to get after market ground effects. Ive been told that it would fit but i never tried.

 

Got any pics? Lets see 'em. If you don't understand how to post them, e-mail them to me and I'll post them.

 

You cannot use just the gfx off the nose of an 85 t/a. 82-84 t/a's have a 2 piece nose (similar to a camaro) and the 85-90 were just one big chunk of molded urethane. If you sawpped out noses,, the 85-90 style fx part would not match up because they are wider(in height) than what came on the 82-84's
Hope that helps

Dead bird, explain that a little more. What do you mean by two piece nose. And I know my nose is taller, so that would just make the GFX lower.

 

Figured this would be easier then talking about it

The fx on the gold t/a nose is a seperate piece as to where the red nose is all one formed piece

Notice the height difference on the side views of the difference in height of the fx too.

Hope that clears it up better

 

Ok, so you're saying that on the one with the fog lights, the red one, there is no seperate GFX? The lower piece with the lights, (or holes) is part of the nose?
Then where can I find the GFX that is on the black and gold one? What year did it come like that. My '82 T/A had louvered vents where in the nose, but I like the flat covers. It also doesn't have GFX like that.
What I want to do is use the front off of the '91 T/A, and the sides from a '90-'92 RS. But it's still all up in the air 'till I can figure it out.
