83 Z28 but want 85-90 front lower air dam

So is that possible? could i just replace that front piece of gfx? I like how they are lower and they have the scoops but i like the rest of the ground effects on my car. what would i have to do to make this work.

you will just have to drill new holes so you can bolt everything up. not to bad of a job. The style with the scoops are the 91-92 gfx.

p.s. what kind of cowl hood are you selling?

Its not too hard to drill? and the nose has no impact? on the way it will line up? some guy in CAli actually is going to buy the ohod. not sure what kind though but its the kind with soft curves and with louvers on it.

Headlights will fit. You will need 85-92 parking lights though.
