    Default Hi All!

    Hi! i was referred here to ask you guys this question...Is there any reason i cant put the 85-86 GT front bumper on my 82? mine just looks to plain as its a mustang GL. Will this work and would it even look right on a notch? any help is appreciated! Thanks!

    Most guys here would advise you against it, but it is doable but takes a lot of work. Nose, hood, fenders, cowl grill, side moldings, and rear bumper need to be changed out for it to look correct.

    if you could find a 82 GT front air dam that would give it a more aggressive look.

    it's not that much work to make it into an 85-86. If your doing the body work then you might as well do the conversion.
