It can be done. You need not only all of the ground effects kit, but the door molding as it is bigger on the GT. When you take the molding off that are on either side of the wheel wells be careful because you can screw up the body if you're not.

This still begs the question.....why??

it's possible, but if you're talking about putting them on an LX COUPE, i will KILL you.

and the moulding itself isn't bigger, the stripe inside the moulding is.

It's an option, a poor one, but an option.

Oh good. the worst mistake is puting a gt kit on a notch...there's a reason they only came in conv. and hatchbacks.

i like the gt/s more than the Lx's but you can make a LX look just as good with a few upgrades!

...minus the Saleen wing, of course. Wings upon notches are strictly forbidden.

There are some ground effects kits out there for lx's, there is one that looks just like a GT, its probably easyer and may even weigh less. You would have to use the original side skirts.

But in my opinion the GT rear bumper is realy ugly, I dont know i think its because of the curve at the bottom of it and you cant see an exhaust tip, I think the tips curve down and that just remindes me of a 80's F-body. And cheese grader tail lights are just sooo sooo sooo cheesy lol, There are better looking body kits or ground effects kits out there, just search around.
