Default Can an SS nose fit a 1985 Monte Carlo?

Hi everyone. I was wondering if a 1986 or 1987 monte carlo SS nose could be bolted up to a 1985 monte carlo?

If it can be.. Is there modifications that need to be done or is it a simple replacement?

I've been told that the front ends are different and it can't be done. If anyone know different I would like to know as well.

Yes it can be done.

You will need the entire SS nose (front fenders, SS nose, grille, etc) to do the swap.

There are many SS clones out there these days.

you'll need all the braces and brackets too. there was a company called Choo-choo customs who were famous for putting SS nose pieces on 78-87 Malibus and El Caminos

you can also get the nose from opgi.com. i believe you can use the factory fenders they use fender extensions though.
