91-92 Firebird front bumper differences

We’re the front bumper grills only available on the formula/non gfx bumpers?

Dont recall seeing a 6cyl with the grills in the bumper but could be wrong.

It is a great car, but unfortunately I don’t own it anymore, regret the day I sold it every single day 😞

probably 75% of the 91-92s came with GFX - I used to and still do think of them as gutters because of the pronounced lip on the sides of the doors I used to like them now I don't.
So finding say a good front bumper cover without GFX-- well -good luck! I'm putting a Non GFX set on my 90 I really like this one -



if you put a picture of the GFX and non side by side you can see how the openings are a good bit different

Funny how the least popular package back when new is now the more desired one kinda like the fox body mustang most were ordered as hatchbacks/GTs and now the Lx coupes are the most desirable ones.

same goes for the 91-92 formulas now.

Those decals or whatever they are that are inboard of the fog lights on the silver car look terrible.
