Default Front Fender Question

Ok I had a little accident and need a new Drivers side fender for my 1987 GT.

My question is would an LX fender be the same as a GT or should I get a GT fender? Also what years fit 87-93?

*sigh* been thru this numerous times 79 - 93 fenders are all the same dimensions, it is just the fiberglass fender extensions that are different and maybe a few mounting holes that could be drilled out if needed.

Think you need to read thru this thread.

All I really need to know is if an LX fender will work on my GT, I called 50resto and they said they are the same...

the opening at the bottom of the fender itself looks a bit more open in front of the wheel on the 91-93, just looking at pics...
