Cutlass Plastic Body Parts

I have a 1992, and, as many W-body owners know, the rocker panels rot from the inside out. In later models (ie: 1997), GM altered the bumpers and plastics to basically cover up the rocker panels and lower parts of the doors so any rust they experienced to doesn't appear.

 

For a hundred bucks or so, I can likely pull a new front bumper, new side panels, and perhaps even a new rear bumper from the junkyard. Another $200-$300 to have a body shop prep and paint to match.

 

Anyone know if this would be a true bolt-on mod, once the painting is done? Effectively upgrading the exterior of a 1992 to the 1997 standard?

The bumpers will bolt on. The side body cladding will need clips to be attached along with a few screws and bolts. Your car wont have that. So you will need to ad that.

 

If you pull those parts at a scrap yard you will see what I am talking about.
