    I have a 1996 Grand prix 4 door SE with a 3.1 in it. I have done cat back exhaust, cold air intake. Hood scoop routed to intake. I want to keep this as my daily driver and my Fiancé wants to drive it as well. I would like to get rid of the stock body kit as it is way too plain.

    Is the GTP body kits (Front bumper, rear bumper, and side skirts) Compatible? Or should I go another route?

    Yes this is a 4 door, works awesome for the family. I purchased the car for 1500 with a new motor in it that had 60k miles on it. Body has 201k.
    I will be getting a GTP sometime soon :-)

    Any information would be appreciated!

    The front and rear bumpers will be compatible, but that's where the compatibility ends. Everything else will have to be custom fabricated to fit the 4 doors, and you'll most likely need a couple sets of the door pieces in order to have enough material to work with to fabricate them to the 4-door. I'm not aware of any aftermarket kits for the Gen I w-bodies that are still available either, but even when they were, they were hideous. I've seen Photoshopped pics of the 2-door B4U kit on a 4-door. It would probably cost a small fortune to have done if you can't do it yourself, but it looked pretty sweet.

    Thanks for the information! I greatly appreciate it. I searched for a good two months trying to find pictures, or diagrams that would show enough of the bumbers and such to figure out if they were compatible.

    Thanks RareGMFan!
