Yep, it should fit, the ground effects will be different (assuming your car has ground effects that is), but it will basically bolt right up (with the typical exceptions of every "easy bolt on mod" LOL).

FWIW You won't have a hard time selling your '82-'84 bumper either, parts for the earlybirds are getting difficult to find!!

Yes it can be done, but you will also need to change the plastic reinforcement behind the cover. I swapped 82-84 style covers on to to replace my 85-90 style, and they are different.,
