Default front wheel flairs

I have a 79 firebird that has 79 ta front fenders but I installed a 78 front bumper and I want to install a front spoiler. would I use a set from a 79 ta or do I use a front spoiler from a 78 ta?

Fender I believe are the same . Front nose dictates the center spoiler anyway. Not sure if a 78 center section will bolt/blend to 79-81 side sections.

IIRC - '79 fenders have two separate sets of mounting holes. 1 for '78 & older flares and 1 pair for the '79-81 flares.

I've got 79 flares/center on my 78. If you have a set of 78 flares, I'd love to trade you!!
