Justr keep in mind the belt molding on the fender and the inner fender liners are different as well.

yep...its a good extra .75" extra opening.... basically the fender lip looks just like the rear one on the 91+ cars...unlike the whimpy smaller ones.

I happen to have one of each on my car, because somewhere in the past somebody didnt do thier homework
