    Umm yeah. They are.

    Unless you mean AE82 corolla. Then no. They don't.

    Well its quite simple really. An AE86 sprinter is funnily enough also an AE86 corolla. Much like an AE86 trueno is also based off the same AE86 chassis.

    I am assuming the original poster is asking whether the guards from an AE82 Corolla which look quite similar will fit an AE86. To which the answer is no, they will not fit.

    sorry for the lack of detail...um..i was wondering are there any corolla guards that will fit onto the AE86 sprinter...as i am trying to find some straight guards that i can use as a mould to make my own fibreglass set...i know most of you will prob say just buy the fibreglass guards...but i can make a mould and then i can lay up a set anytime...and they will be as flared as i want them...

    regards

    In the JDM AE86 chassis cars, the Sprinter Trueno and the Corolla Levin have different guards.

    However the AE86 Corolla Levin was called a Sprinter in Australia to add to the confusion, so it all depends on what market you're referring to AUDM, JDM etc.

    ok, im pretty sure only ae86 panels/guards will fit on an ae86.

    other model corolla panels wont, they are different size/shape

    if you are gonna make fibreglass moulds you will need ae86 guards.

    there

    you might get away with cutting an soarer's guards shorter... they seem to have similar headlights. Fibreglass guards are about $500 out of japan for a pair anyways.
