GFX question. Please help

i have a 84 z28 camaro and i dont like the front gfx on it, so im going to look at this guys 91 camaro i think it might be an rs im not sure, but the newer years have the nice blade looking chin spoiler i like and i was wondering if i could just swap the chin spoiler and front end or would i have to buy all the gfx from him and the front end? to make it work...

i made that same decision, you have to do the entire car gfx or it will look funny, the 90's are lower to the ground

i decided against as i thought my 84 z was good lookin enough

I think the front bumper cover is different but the rear cover is different for sure It will all bolt on. The side skirts will take a bit to massage, as the brackets are different. VFN fiberglass makes some cool parts for these cars.. Check them out. VFNfiberglass.com or something like that.
