LX fenders do not have the metal strips to hold on the ground effects like your GT fenders. They could be added if you can't find GT ones. That is the only difference. Remember, 79-90 fenders are different from 91-93 fenders as the 91-93's have a little bigger wheel arch.

As far as replacing them, it isn't hard if you have any mechanical knowledge. The bolts can be a bit of a pain to access on the bumpers, but it really isn't hard to do. It is literally unbolt and bolt back on affair. lining the fenders up with the hood and door can take a little time, just be slow and patient and get your gaps correct.
