Cervinis Bumper Cover

[aNotchAbove]

I have a Cervinis bumper cover made for a 91-93, but my car is an 89. Will I notice much of a difference?

Bumper covers are the same. The extensions are different for the difference in the fenders. What cover is it?

Its the Saleen one. Which extensions are you talking about? The ones for the bumper or the ones attached to the fender?

The one you have is going to be too short for your 89. In 91 they went with the 16 inch ponies so the wheel openings are longer. Your saleen lip wont work unless you get the 91+ fenders.

Wouldn't that make the bumper cover too long since the wheel well opening is closer to the front of the car?

Can anyone else confirm this?

CONFIRMATION:

yes, the front wheel openings on 91-93 cars are wider to accommodate for the larger 16" pony wheels. so if you have an 89 car but a front bumper for a 91-93, the fender extentions on that bumper (parts of the bumper that wrap around the side and go to the wheel openings) will be too SHORT. (bigger wheel opening=smaller fender extention)

i used the saleen lip from cervinis on my 88. what i had to do was just remove the factory extensions and it all worked out.

Was your lip made for 87-89? There is a big difference in length on the lip from a 91+. I got the 91+ fenders to clear my 17's because the opening is a good inch to inch and a half longer/bigger.
