The windows and interior quarter trim helps. Your also gonna need some extrra 9mm nuts and washers. Your also gonna need some butyl tape.

oh and i just cut the trim off for now but i have 93 trim to go from door top to front, **** i already have 87 mirrors cus one was missing when i got the car. prolly gunna make this car kinda look like a cobra since im keeping the tail lights 86 for sure.interior might keep it the same unless i get my 140mph speedo, i have a 87 speedo but its only a 85 so why bother for now with a major deal of doing a 87 dash swap till i get a 140 speedo and the right color center consoule

no its a hassle cus the seat belt thing is lower on our cars than on 87-93 and it means u have to make a new hole in the 87 plastic interior trim and will be left with the hole that was for 87-93 and u will need the back 2 peices of trim in the trunk area as well. but other than that its pretty easy. i just left my old trim on the inside, i do have trim from a 88 but not the back trim in the right color, and i dont want grey and then maroon in the trunk!lol! so ill wait till i find some grey for the back at my local yard.i think it looks a million times better and with the back bumper and front bumper it really throws people off! i want it to kinda have the cobra look in the back minus the cobra wing, that thing looks tacky in my opinion, the 87gt wing is sexier.so maybe a cobra rear bumper and tail lights since one of my tail lights is busted. leaving the front as is.
i changed my screen name i havent had the 351w for a long time and got tire of people asking about my 351 that i blew up,lol, so i changed my name
