Re: IM BACK! WITH A DUMB QUESTION

i cant imagine that the two body kits would be interchangable. but the conversion that Tmic did does look pretty nice if you can find some 91,92 ground FX

yeah i was kinda wondering, well mine is a s/e v8 so its basically a trimless wonder,i just want to find as much of the stuff that will fit for cheap, the side skirts cost like 12 bucks at pull a part:P but alot of times they are no good cus they set the car up on stuff and its right on the side skirts and it crushes them. usally when a bird shows up in the yard its already de trimmed before it makes it to the yard and the nose is damaged. whats the differance between a 84 ta and the s/e v8?
