Has anyone done this

I was wondering if any one has take the ground FX from a say 85-92 Camaro, and made them fit on a 82-84 Camaro, I think the biggest thing will be fitting the nose, I would have to cut, and refit the nose peice of the Ground FX.

Why not get a 91-92 front nose clip?

After that, its a piece of cake.

I saw someone who did this... kinda. It looked like total crap. The gfx was all stuck up high on the nose. If you cut them it might look okay, but don't just tack it on there....

I would just replace the nose on your car. The previous owner did that with my '83 TA. Now my car has the lower style ground effects, rather than those ugly ones on the stock car. I couldnt figure out why my '83 Looked so different for a while, until I realized it. It would probably be easier to do it that way. I wish I could post pics, but I dont have a scanner.

replace the nose for the year you want, make it easy on yourself, all models are the same (rs,z28) at least for there years!

90-92 would be the best way to go unless u want the iroc look then i think (don't shoot me for this) 86-89 (excluding the 90 cause of the change in groundfx's)

all the same the side gfx's will work from any year, but the front will only work if u change the nose.
