SS TRIM

The transformation begins!

The exterior differences between the Caprice and the Impala are pretty subtle and easy to convert if you have a little time and money. Many consist of just painted rather than chrome parts. I'll list the parts I used and give the part numbers that I have.

When it came time to put it all together, I got in a hurry and opened the packages without making notes as to left/right or front/rear so you will need to verify all these numbers with your dealer. These are listed merely as a starting point to help your parts counter person find the parts your looking for.

Before the factory GM parts, a word about the SS rear spoiler. The GM part is around $250 retail and is bolted on through the trunk lid. I found a factory style spoiler from A&A specialties in the Summit racing Catalog. I discovered that my local Kragen auto parts store also carried them and offered a 10% discount under the Summit price and free shipping which put it right around $107 plus tax. The fit and finish needed some work and it is fastened with the same type of double sided tape that the trim is attached with. After 9 months the ends are beginning to lift a bit, but I didn't let it sit with weight on it overnight like the directions suggested either (I drove it almost immediately). I can pull the edges and reapply more tape. I think it was a good value and nobody would know it wasn't factory.

Everything else is genuine GM.

Notes:

If you are converting the windows on a '91-94 caprice, you MUST use the '94 Impala SS windows. '95 and '96 windows are different as the rear quarter panels were changed in '95. The rear quarter windows DO NOT include the plastic triangle that covers the section that used to be glass on the old windows. That is the next part on the list. This part does not include the Deer emblem either. That is another part number.
