mixing different body parts from different years
Hi guys, I have a 1987 Camaro coupe and I would like to put the bumpers and gfx from an 82-84 Z28. My question is.... Will the bumpers bolt right up? the parts im getting are the front bumper cover/ gfx and the rear bumper cover/ gfx and the side gfx and door pieces.

the bumpers would bolt right up but the gfx you would need to drill new hole but it can be done i saw a 92 with 82 bumpers and gfx

Technically yes, but the sport coupe's were a rare bread! Especially the 82-84 camaro imo

Nope, could also be classed as a sports car (2 seat, I.E. Corvette), sports compact (2 seat, engine smaller than 2 liters, I.E. MR2), or a spyder (2 seat convertible, I.E Miata). However most hardtop 2+2 sporty cars are labeled as coupes.

Re: mixing different body parts from different years
If you've got a sc with no gfx on it currently you will need the metal side brackets from a car with gfx, this will be a big pita as there are a LOT of spot welds holding them on, and then you'll need to install them on your car properly.
