body panel match up
when doing a pre 91 bumper swap, does the 91 hood fit the pre 91 head lights? also does anyone know if the ground effects on the rear pumper are removable? i havent had the chance to look my car over yet since i havent gotten it home yet

Re: body panel match up
The hood is the same from 82-92.
The headlight brackets, that hold the sealed beams, the headlight doors, and the sealed beam closeout panels are different 82-90 and 91-92.
The front park lights are different between 82-90 and 91-92.
The ground effect on the rear bumper is molded into it and can't be removed.
If you're going to remove the ground effects, there will be a number of holes that will need to be filled.

In addition if you are swapping on the 85-90 style ground effects then there will be several new holes to drill in the body as they are different locations from the 91-92 style effects locations. The unused holes should all be patched.
