You need 88/89 headlights, front bumper filler, bumper, bumper lights, corner lights, fender clips to screw the corner lights into, and if you wanna go all out, the side mouldings, rear bumper, taillights, and trunk.

If you need the headlights and front bumper filler, pm me, I have both in GREAT condition.

Actually, last i checked to do this you only needed the bumper, support, filler, and your done. Cause the bumpers really are in the in the same spot and the fillers are not different enough to where you need to change the headlights. fenders can stay cause the fenders are the same from 88-91. corner lights can stay too.

just so you know, if you do the 88-89 front bumper, the moldings are gonna be different from the sides and rear because the 88-89 have the indent on the molding for pinstripes.
