Default Bumper question

Hey everyone! First of all I'd like to say thanks for all the info on this forum. I am currently restoring a 78 Monte Carlo I rescued and this site has been a big help!!

My question is will a front bumper cover from a 1980 Monte Carlo (non SS) fit on my 78 with out and fab work? I am trying to keep the original look as close as possible on the outside. Thanks for any input fellas!!!!

Hello,the answer to your question is no. I owned a 78 and have a 83 now. Fab work will definitely be needed to get it to fit properly.
