Question Changing Front bumper, rear taillights?

I was thinking of purchasing an 1988 firebird, but I was wondering if i could replace the front bumper and rear tailights to an earlier 82-84 firebirds and if i could would be alot of work? thanks for the help

Im pretty sure that it would be a direct swap over, nothing too hard...may I ask why? the later 3rd gen always looked cleaner than the earlier one IMO.

If thats what you want go for it.
My neighbor has a 91 that he may sell those parts off
if youre looking for the later look.
I think the 91-2 bumper looked the best

You should have no problem switching the 88 bumper for a 82-84. The Tail lights though your harness will need some work since the Lamps light up different. If you had a 88 T/A it should be a direct swap with no harness work.
