Does anyone here know if the upper front fenders will match up with the lower if the lower are 87 or do I have to change out both the upper and lower. Maybe this is why the upper were not on the vehicle to begin with. Well still got hope. Glenn

What do you mean by "upper" fenders? Are you talking about the hood matching the gill panel and front bumper? A little clarification is needed.

I am talking about the upper wheel well I guess I should say. The upper piece attaches to the hood and was wondering if it would match up to the bottom or weather I would have to replace both. Hope this is more clear. Glenn

I'm not going to tell you yes because I'm not sure about the 91-96 wheelwells but I do know that that 84-90 are all the same and will match up to each other.

In your "OTHER" thread that's nearly a duplicate you mention you DON'T really know what year hood you have on your car! The fit between the upper "wheelhouse" (that bolts to the hood) and the three piece "lowers" I don't believe should be a problem for you. You need to match the "uppers" to the hood!!!

I posted part #'s and years for interchange in your other thread and you posted a response that I don't recall. Do you have "ONE OR NONE" that fit? You bought one I believe that you mentioned didn't fit so you've eliminated that style I guess!

What year is your hood? Post a snapshot of the "backside" of it!!!
