Default Front Bumper Swap...

Okay, so I have an 84 Coupe, and put an 86 GT Front End on the car...



Looks pretty good... I love the 4 eyes, and love the GT front end! I got it to line up pretty well, but not PERFECT. I'm in the process of getting the car put into stages for paint - and I need it to be perfect before paint...

Help?!

Also, the lower part of the GT Bumper doesn't match up with the lower front section of my Non-GT Front Fenders...

Help?!

Okay, what are these fender extensions you speak of, and where can I get them?

Note - the car has no body moldings anymore, so that is why that doesn't line up of course. Question is, to reinstall or not to reinstall... Where to buy? Expensive? Etc...

Here are the pics of where the bumper is mis-aligned to the tops of the fenders, and then the last few are the ones where these fender extensions would come into play I assume...

there is 2 pieces your missing son. One would be the moulding. The other is a fiberglass piece that joins the fender and bumber. go look at one in person.

I told your cracker ass to make me an offer. I just got fired from my main gig (job #1) this morning, so I'm liable to take a GREAT offer. No nazi-isms, and no ball breakin though, sucka.
