can you update the front clip and fx on an older 3-gen?

Just curious, can you put a newer front clip(like 89-92 maybe) on a 82-84z w/the older front clip? How about the fx? Im looking into buying an 82z w/350, but like the front and fx on my 90 rs.
thanx

Yes you can. The mounting holes will be slightly differnt for all three styles. I had an 84'Z that I put an 87 IROC body style, F/B bumpers,all the GFX. I've just finished my 87 Z project body with 91-92 Z28 body. It was an LT with NO gfx at all. A little welding of rocker supports and some other small mods and walla....91-92 Z even shaved the attenna and removed the 3 piece spoiler to put the hi-rise on. Email me if you need help.
