Re: dumb question .... what is my firebird

The sides and rear bumper are 91-92, but your front is from an earlier year.

i dont think im going to try and locate an origional bumper for y car , i think im going to stick with this one , and maybe do some fiberglass work to make the rockers flow better onto the fender ...... sound like a good idea or bad ?

Re: dumb question .... what is my firebird

Yeah, its hard to find the bumpers for these. I am not sure, but I think that if you can get the front bumper and gfx from an older TA it will still flow well.
