I dont know how easy or simple it is, but it's not too hard I dont think.

I almost bought an 84 Z with a 91-92 front end on it a while back.

I thought it was a little goofy that it didnt match with the ground effects in front of the rear wheel. Other than that the car looked nice, I just dont trust repainted cars that much.



He claimed it was an 84 anyway, but I never got a chance to go look at it and really go over it and make sure everything checked out.

Cant be too much trouble.

the only way to install the front spoiler would be to change the entire front bumper. The 85-92 front bumpers are totally different than the 82-84 front bumpers. I used to have an 84 Z....and I cloned it to a 92 Z28

I didnt notice you just wanted the ground effects.

Yeah, you're gonna have to get a new front bumper cover with the ground effects on 'em. You cant just bolt up the ground effects.

But it's not really that big of a deal to put a new bumper cover on it, if you can deal with it not matching the rest of the car. Im just not sure if the actual bumper itself is the same on the 84 compared to the 85+ cars.
