well i just noticed but on the rear quarter where the side marker goes the two moldings are different,,one is totally flush and the other has a little overhang,,kinda like a little sun visor on it,,,

which one is the right one for my car,,the flush or the visored one

it is a 87 t2

 

Series 4 had black moldings that are not flush. Series 5 had the body colored flush ones. You have a Series 4.

 

hey will a series 5 frontend fit on a series 4

 

Yes. It will. I have seen it done lots of times. So will the moldings. The body did not change from 1986 to 1992, so all body panels are swapable.

 

**** it better cause thats what i wanna do to my 88TII. i have seen it done before. i dont know if any fitting problems will occur though!

anyone have 1st hand experience with series 5 front clip to a series 4 body?

 

I don't have 1st hand experiecne, but like I said, all the body panels are swapable. Just unbolt the old bumper cover, and bolt up the new one!! It's that easy. The hoods are the same dimensions (I do have 1st hand experience w/ that), the fenders are the same, and so are the headlights (experience with both). So no, no fittment problems there.

 

my junkyard has one in perfect shape and im friends with the guy and he'll sell it to me for 100 bucks

 

ok cool! thanks rico!

is that you in your pic?

 

LUCKY ******!!!! ****** it dude!

 

Go for $50-$75. $100 is a little steep from a j-yard. You can get aftermarket ones for like $250.

 

Its that way from the factory. The little overhang is to keep gas from splashing on the yellow marker lens. The gas would probably discolor the lens or haze it over. My TII has the same thing.

 

wow that is cool,,i thought someone just went to the junk yard and got a different molding,,

thanks
