the fender will bolt up, but the bumper is different and the turn signals are in different positions.

nopers, the 79-80's had the steel front bumper that looks totally different and made the fenders different as well. if youre in texas ive got parts for your 85 you can have cheap, otherwise check your local junkyard or the for sale ads here.
good luck

the fender will bolt up, but the 85 style front bumper will not work with it
http://www.atlantarx7.com/body1gen.html confirms that 79-80 are indeed different

if you cant find the proper 81-85 parts, you can get the other 79 fender also and convert the front end to the earlier style, although most prefer the style of the newer front end
