How to tell a 91 from a 92 T/A?

Im just wondering how to tell a 92 from a 91 from just looking? Is there any change that I can look for in the body or lights or just anything for a firebird or a trans am of these years?

As far as I know their is no way to tell the difference between a 91/92 T/A by just looking at the outside. You need to look at the Vin.

Some colors were available 92 only so that may be a clue.

I'm just guessing, but I saw a stock 92 GTA, and on top of the throttle body their was no TUNED PORT INJECTION. plate, just a flat one.

There are a lot of 92 specific differences to look for, but nothing you're going to be able to see just sitting next to one at a stoplight.
