Will I run into any issues trying to use '87 or 88' Camaro body parts on my '92 RS?
I fellow I work with is parting out his car. It's either an 87 or or 88... I don't remember. As far as I know it's just the base model v8 and 5 speed. The only body parts I really need off his car is the front bumper cover assembly (including the ground effects) and the little trim pieces (ground effects?) that go along the bottom of the doors.
I haven't seen his car in a while so I don't quite recall how similar his and mine are.

The only fitment issue you'll have is that the 91-92 chin spoiler clips in a vertical slit in the fenders while the earlier (85-90) chin spoilers bolt on in 3 holes. If you are changing the ground effects I would change all or none. The 91-92 and 85-90 are two different styles and would look better all together rather than mixed and matched.

The 91-92 chin spoiler will bolt right to the bumper cover. The only difference is the fender mounting everything else is the same.
