'91 RS gfx on '82 bird

Everything but the nose gfx will fit.
The camaro has a seperate gfx piece and the firebird nose is one piece deal.
With a bit of hacking you could get it to work,, sort of,, it depends on how much work you're feeling up to to make it work.
Also keep in mind also the camaro nose gfx has part of the front air inlet molded into it as to where the t/a (or firebird front doesn't

Honestly, I like the way it looks right now the best. Personally, I think it's the best looking (body style) of all years. Not that I don't like all other years, I just like mine the best.
