    can you facelift a 88ix

    so I know that cars before 88 are not able to take on plastic bumpers without alot of modification because of the high arches, and cars that are 88 + its pretty easy. I was wondering if this goes for the IX as well, will plastics bumpers swap onto a 88 ix pretty easily?

          88s are late models, just with metal bumpers. so the plastics are direct fit.

          just make sure you replace the bumper shocks as well.

            Just need late model bumper shocks, the plastic pieces on the valences that align the bumpers and convert the signal wires.
