        Yup. I returned a bumper last week to them that didn't fit for shit. I found an old Ford one on cl for a bill. Have to scratch and shoot but it fits perfect.

            I have one on my 92 LX, it fits great. Is yours an LX or a GT? I had to do a little sanding on the edges, but all the lines lined up great, even the hood to bumper gap. They had 2 versions, a cheap one and an expensive one. Mines the expensive one.

              It is going to be after market and it usually never fits worth a damn. Sometimes its not to bad just depends

                  I usually agree with this statement. I don't know if I got lucky, or their parts are actually decent. I have aftermarket inner fenders, core support, and bumper, all from Late Model Resto. The hood is from an 89, and the fenders are from a 91. It all lines up great, even after having the frame rails straightened.

                  If new OEM had been available, I NEVER would have bought after market. With these cars getting older, sometimes we have to roll the dice on these parts. I do remember having to trim some OEM bumper covers to fit, though.

                  Heres a pic of all the parts installed;

                    ^^^ That looks outstanding. Most of the parts on the front end depend upon proper core support alignment. If the support is not straight, something else usually suffers in the alignment department.
