Getting first Mustang tomorrow a question...

MMAThaiBoxer · 05-02-2005, 11:42 PM

My GF went and bought me a 50,000 original mile 1992 Mustang LX 5.0 convertable that I am picking up tomorrow. I have a few simple questions that Im hoping you experts can answer for me. I saw someone asked in another post if GT ground effects parts can be used on an LX. The answer was yes they can be for the hatchbacks. My question is can I use the GT hatchback ground effects parts on an LX convertable. Im asking because I originally wanted a GT but was offered a great deal on this LX so I jumped on it. The guy Im getting the car from has most of the ground effects from another Mustang and is in the same color as the one I am getting. I have a bodyshop guy that does great work and he'll put the kit on for me but he isnt 100% sure they are compatible. In short can ground effects from a GT hatchback be used on an LX convertable? I also have to get the GT front bumper on my own. Is there just the one piece that has the bumper and houses the fog lights or is there another part that is seperate that is needed to attatch the fog lights? Thanks in advance and I look forward to spending some time here and doing some learning. BTW Ive been driving a 1990 Miata for the last 3 summers so when I took this for a test drive and let go of the clutch and hit the gas only one thing came to mind and thats....well nevermind

. Thanks again.

I think the dimensions are the same, if there is any doubt, get the ground effects parts and hold them up to the car and test fit them. The bumper covers should be the same, and I think the side skirts should be too. Welcome to MustangWorks!
