Z Ground Effects

Alright, I'm looking into replacing my 89 gfx with 92's.

I see pieces for the rocker panel, doors, and front and back.

I'm wondering if anybody can give me an explanation on these pieces.

The door gfx are pretty self-explanatory but whats up with the rocker gfx? Do they go like behind the door pieces or what.

I like the style of the 92 because of the vents in them. Can I use the 89 rocker pieces with the 92 door gfx pieces or no. I'm confused please help !!!!!! thanks

no, because the 91-92 GFX "flair" out more than the 85-90 GFX....if you want to upgrade to the 91-92 style you will need the front GFX nose piece, the sides, and a new rear bumper cover...

Yes you have to have the 91-92 rear bumper,
even on your 89 the rear gfx's are seperated into 3 sections, the rear quarter gfx's they are about a foot long and the rear bumper its self its all one piece.

I am almost done upgrading my 90 RS to the 91-92 GFX. So far we've done the front clip, and the sideskirts ... all multicolored too! It looks very interesting at the moment (black, maroon, teal, white, etc etc). Still need to do the bumper and the rockers. But yes you'll need the entire front clip, the bottom and top pieces of the sideskirts, the rocker panels, and the bumper. All in all its 8 pieces. Also be aware that you'll need to drill holes for some parts. The 90 and lower sideskirts mount differently than the 91-92 style. The 91-92 style uses brackets that fit into the sideskirt. If you need any help just shoot me a PM. I had fun getting it all to fit right. If it wasnt for Revlimits slick tools, it would have taken me a long time ...

Well im not going through the trouble of buying a new rear bumper cover to run the gfx, but i wanna try and just use the rocker pieces, door pieces, and hopefully front piece if it will work with my 89 bumpercover. Can i run just these pices without it looking retarded
