body panels

I need help I just found my 1st Camaro in the junkyard the other day (long story), and they won't sell it back to me, It was an '89. I just got the front clip off of it including GFX I have and 84 with a right fender from who knows where, I would like to use 92 GFX I'm guessing the 92 Gfx will fit an 89 without much trouble but;

A) how do I find out what fender I have on my car

B) is there an article out there that shows what groundFX will fit what year camaros?

I really don't want to get rid of my Right fender because it doesn't have an antenna hole in it but, I want my Gfx to fit correctly

Please help, thank you

Re: body panels

you could always drill new holes, its easy enough to do.

Re: body panels

is that the only issue? if so than yeah

Do you mean re drll the holes on the side where the front bolts to the fender or the holes that hold on the Gfx to the fender?

Re: body panels

I believe that you'll only have to re-drill the holes for the gfx but Im not 100%. but I'd imagine all the thirdgen camaros share a bolt pattern for the bumper cover to fender.
