Sorry not a bolt on. If It was there would be a ton of guys who would have done it already. I personaly have not seen the 2 noses side by side to see how much conversion is needed, but just based on seeing the noses side by side, the bodylines would in no way match up.

WELL just to let everyone know I took a 95' nose and fender and tried to fit it on my third gen and it wuzn't happening, with a new header panel the nose would have probably gone on BUT youd have to re-shape the edge of your door to fit the contour of the fender AND then you'd also have to buy new mirrors that fit that bodystyle and after that find a way to bolt the fenders on to the body which can probably be done by getting some L channel aluminum and drilling some holes....AS for the hood well I didn't even get that far.....SO IT can be done but with all the modifications and work involved is it worth it???? Not for me it isn't

I dunno, one of the most irritating features for me in the 4th gen is the way the rear of the car seams so slanted that it sits higher than the front of the car. I've seen pics posted of a yellow camaro that has a 4th gen looking nose and a 3rd gen looking rear, it was a show car, so probably custom, but it looked nice. I think if you wanted to go for a good custom look, it would be worth the trouble to have such a unique and attractive look.

Nope not custom, a concept car from '83 I believe.
If only someone would make a GTZ body kit for the public to buy,I'd get it for another 3rdgen project.

Wonder why it has a separate rear side marker light when it already has one in the tailights.

What I meant was if the regular camaros didnt have it, why did it? And why put something there if you dont need it? It would look better smooth without it, but I guess thats just my opinion.

Hey if i saw that car In public Id **** my pants. Id think it be cool if some place offerd that front Nose to the public. Cous to tell the Truth all 80s camaros and firebirds look the same thats why i get happy when i see some thing diffrent than just rims and a cool paint job.
Its like thay say evere one and there Brother has had a Mustang or camaro But its the ones that are Diffrent that stand out.
