    Default 79 or 86 front end for notchback

    I am picking up a 79 notchback later this week. Car is all stock and is also coming with a 86 lx bumper and hood. Are there any options for a nice lower valance for the 79 lx front? 82 GT bumpers are impossible to find and that would be my first choice. Or should I swap out the 86 front end on it? If you have any pics of 79-84 front please post them.

    This is an '80. You can look for the 79-82 Xenon lower airdam or graft on something else. I plan to put a 2000 Cobra R lower bumper on this year.

    This is one of the cheaper new ones, it’s out of stock...not sure for how long.

    Otherwise there are a few options around $350-400.

    Too bad you are so far. I have an 80 cobra front bumper and hood that I might be convinced to sell/trade off.

    79 PC, 80/81 Cobra, and 82 GT front bumper covers and lower air dams are not IMPOSSIBLE to find . . . . . . .

    You just have to know the right people . . . .
