Can you fit???
Can you fit the grille insert (like is shown below) for an 85-90 Camaro in an '84 front bumper fascia? Shape seems the same, but don't have anything to compare with here.

Nope, won't work. The grill on a pre 85 is about two inches smaller than an 86+. I'll post some pictures tomorrow night maybe of a 85's grill compared to a 92 RS (which is the same size as an iroc grill)

the 84 was the most different than any other third gen year. the only way to make it fit would be to modify alot of the front bumper..i wouldnt try it though

Thanks guys, that's pretty much what I thought, but wasn't sure.
Guess I'll stick with just painting that area black when we repaint it - starting next week!

Dude. Welcome to TGO. Notice every message has a date code. The message you just posted says "Today". The message you quoted says "2012". Chances are good that no one comes back to look at a thread after a few weeks of inactivity, much less five years. Don't hesitate to just start a new thread. If you really need to refer to something in an older thread, you can just cut and paste the URL in your post. Notice also the numbers on the right side on every post. If you click that number, the thread will open right to that specific reply. So you can even post a link to a single reply in a long thread.
But to answer your question, yes - 85-92 all front bumpers on ground effect equipped Camaros are the same part. So a Z28 grill insert will fit an RS, etc.
82-84 Camaros are unique to themselves, 85-86 coupes are unique, etc. But 85-up they all interchange except for 85-86 coupes without ground effect moldings.
