yah you could do that, the trim on the bumper and on your car is differant, but if you paint the trim on the 89 bumper black it wont be too bad, or just switch your trim with the trim from the 89.

are you talking about the bumper shell? I put a s5 (89) one on my 87. Fittament was fine however the moulding on the bumper will be different than your s4 moulding (the black strip) hey your from edmonton too!!! ^_^ well here is my car.. if you look closely at where the bumper meets the front fender you can see the difference.



'doh someone beat me to it lol
