From what Im aware of, they dont make one for the 4 eye, what most people do is take the lower part of a 82 GT bumper and put it on the front of their 4 eye. and if you want a saleen body kit that must mean you want the aero nose and if your gonna do that just sell the 4 eye and get a 87-93 because everytime a 4 eye looses its eyes, a child dies.

sorry man they dont make a body kit for the 83 84 gt's the only difference between the L and the GT was the front bumper cover now what you can do is get a GT front bumper cover and custom fit a mach 1 chin spoiler which is what im doing to my 84 they looks awesome with them

I put an '87-'93 Saleen side and rear dit on my '86 Capri and it fits and looks great. (see pic) I would get the same kit for your stang and put this Xenon front air dam (I have for sale / never been on a car)on it to complete it.

First off they do make saleen and Xennon kits for an 83. 83-86 are the same kit. An air dam of an 82 Gt will NOT fit. I have an 86 and bought a 82 air dam and it doesn't fit because the 83-86 have a round frot where the 82 is more square. The sides and rear are the same 79-93, just the air dam. california Mustang has some nice air dams too
