4th gen firebird question

I noticed that the new firebirds have a nice hood(looks aerodynamic) while the 1993 ones look plain, can I simply go and swap the hoods without any problems?

V6,

Not sure, but someone at www.Z28.com or www.LS1.com might be able to give more info.

Zippy is correct, 93 to 97 are one design, and 98 and newer are another.

The 93 to 97s have a square headlight door, the newer ones have a rounded door.
