i was wondering if the ground effects are interchangable for the 82-92 trans ams

 

All the gfx from '82-'92 are interchangeable, under certain conditions. A stock '82-'83 has a different front end...notice the vents in the front. The '82 and '83 TA's have such small gfx that they are barely noticeable. The '84 changed its style a little, and took the look of the '83 pace car...had the same gfx. The front end had solid covers over the vents. This car had pretty low gfx. Then in '85 the front end changed completely...to the style I like best. The gfx on these cars in my opinion look the best, and are much lower. Also, the '91-'92 as you must know also changed the front end. The side gfx were also changed to a different style. If you have an '82-'83 in order to put the gfx from an '85-'90 you must change the front end bumper cover as well as the back bumper. It looks 110% better...trust me. The last owner on my car did it. I think my car looks so much better than my neighbors '83 TA. If you look at my car you would swear it was and '85-'90. The side gfx then will interchange. I personally do not like the '91-'92 style front end. You can use the side gfx from those as well in order to put them on the sides of your car. I dont know how to explain this. But what I am trying to say is that yes, the gfx are interchangeable, but you will need to change some parts on your car. It will be worth it though. If you have an '85-'90 you can definitely interchange gfx from btwn those years since they are the same exact. There was a picture floating around here showing the different types of gfx..that will give you an idea on how you may need to change some things before getting some gfx.

 

hey jim i have an 87 TA and the side pieces that are between the front wheel well and the front bumper fell off and i was wondering what years had those on so when i am looking i know what years to ask for. if you know that then it will help out a lot.

 

Well the side ground effects for the '85-'90 were all the same. I am currently looking for the side gfx for my TA. I converted my body style from the '83 look to the '87 look. My front end and rear bumper is identical to the one on yours. The only thing I need to completely finish the switch is the side gfx. So goodluck. You can also put the '91-'92 side gfx on your car...and make it a little customized. They are pretty cool, just that I dont like the front end of the '91-'92's. Your best bet is to stick with gfx from an '85-'90.
