Re: different front clip
Headlight motors/Headlight doors/Headlight relay (just grad the whole assemblies)
Bumper support MIGHT be different *my buddys 91 looks different than my 87)
I think the fenders are basically the same, but the ground fx might have different mounting holes & slots)
91/20 fender front ground fx are EXPENSIVE & hard to find. Keep that in mind if they ever need replacing, or the deal doesn't include both sides
Personally, I like the 85-90 nose better (without the black bumper inserts)

Re: different front clip
The headlight doors themselves are the same, it's just the bezels that are different.
If you don't have GFX on either car, I say go for it. That's a good price for everything you'll get.

Re: different front clip
Dunno if they are interchangeable or not, but they aren't the exact same.
Different bezels, different head light bulbs, different turn lights....and much more.

Re: different front clip
What I meant was, the doors are interchangeable.
