Re: fender interchangeable

Physically yes. All 82-92 Camaros will interchange, same as all 82-92 Firebird fenders will interchange.

Only differences you can run into are the ground effect mounting holes. Just takes a drill to take care of that.

Re: fender interchangeable

Will Firebird fenders interchange with Camaro fenders?

Yes & no.

Yes they will bolt. No you cannot use ANY of the Camaro stuff forward of the firewall now. Camaro body with the fenders, hood, nose of a Firebird. You would have to turn it into a Firemaro.

The complete opposite of this Cambird.

Re: fender interchangeable

I know this thread is dead, but I post because I had come across this post and used its information to go ahead and pull off fenders from an 83 Camaro to put onto my 91, and don't want people to have the same issue. They lined up beautifully, EXCEPT that you cannot use a 91 Camaro front bumper. (Just little things, huh?) I thought they looked great, then, as I mounted the front bumper cover for body work, I looked at the side, I saw this.......

(Don't you love how you could totally mount the ground effects on with "just drilling a couple holes"? =P)

Re: fender interchangeable

Yes, if you noticed, the person who replied with that info is banned.
To clear it up, 82-90 fenders are mostly interchangeable besides gfx holes , firebirds have different extractor vent holes 82-84 and 85-90. Both Camaro and firebird have different mounting 91-92 and incompatible gfx.
Firebird and Camaro fenders are not interchangeable unless you are changing the whole front with it!

Re: fender interchangeable

I had noticed they were banned, (I didn't figure bad information would get you banned lol) I just didn't want someone to google fender interchange and find this thread and end up in a similar situation. But thank you for clearing it up ^^
