Can you do that? Sure.
Should you? Probably not. Makes more work for later, plus it'll more than likely not match in color or finish, etc.

im not much of a show guy , so the car is only gonna be semi gloss black , like ive always said looks dont make it go , but i understand what your saying , the stock gt body kit is pretty much falling off on its own , the brackets an all rusted an in pieces , you can pull the side skirts out an see all the rust in the pockets of the skirts

Ok. I don't know if these are technical questions or just stupid ones.

If the body is so rusted, why did you invest in a new body kit?

If you don't care about looks, why did you invest in a new body kit?

i said the brackets were rusted , an the body kit was was falling off , the body kit itself was a gift from my wife. so like i said i want to get it on the car before something happens to it , the body itself is in really good shape , minus the normal rust spots ( along the lower hatch area ,

I had a flat black Thunderbird when I was 17, I had the body work professionally done but couldn't afford the paint so I spray bombed it. As long as the black has a good surface to stick to I don't think you should have any problems. When it starts to look ugly, just pull out the spray bomb and fix er up.
I wouldn't normally recommend this but its your car and you have to enjoy it, who cares what everybody thinks. I think we all need to remind ourselves every now and then its just a car, metal, rubber and glass.
