GFX need help!

I have a set of 82 side gfx and a set of 86 side gfx. Are those the same, or did the side gfx change from 85-90 also? The reason I am asking is because one of the 86 sides is a little busted up because the repair shop accidentally rolled the car over it. I was going to get it repaired, but I figured if the 82 sides are similar I can just use one of those as a replacement. THANKS

- Adam

I would have the repair shop fix or pay to have it fixed or buy a replacement if they ran over it!

heres the low down on GFX.
i asume you mean camaros by the way...

82-84 had smaller GFX
85-90 had bassicly the same GFX but wider (closer to the ground)
and 91-92 had aero GFX. they had air scoops in the side skirt and front piece on the sides.

so no you cant use the 82 gfx with the 86. but if a body shop rolled your car over your gfx they should replace it for you. at least, thats how i feel. if someone mucks with my car, they pay for it!
hope this helps.
