Sure, but a lot of work. You would have to find a donor car that you could section the last 12 inches or so of the quarter panels and you would have to use a T/A rear bumper cover because you will lose the liscese plate mounting location.

Re: Possible?

short answer, no. The back end of the firebirds is wider than that of the camaro. The rear quarters are shaped way too differently from each other to make tail light swaps possible between the two.

Re: Possible?

yeah, would be pretty complicated. Would be much easier to just the front end assy on a GTA for the same exterior look.

In this case, it would just be replacing the hood, changing the headlight assy and installing the front bumper cover and chin, correct?

Also, other peoples opinion on this look would be appreciated. I believe it would look amazing.
