1983, 84 and 85 are direct bolt ons. Note: In the USA in 1986 and later cars, the lower radiator support is different than 1985 and earlier cars in order to accomodate the bigger headlights. Therefore, to fit 1986+ bumpers, you would basically have to swap on an entire 1986+ front end.

Be really careful when removing the upper bumper trim from the source car, it is easy to bend and nearly impossible to get back to the right shape once it is bent.

Also, figure out how to remove your old bumpers (what bolts, what size sockets etc) before you go to the junkyard, the learning experience will save you a lot of time.
