Exterior damage

I have an 86 fc, with some passenger side front bumper and fender damage and was wondering if any year's exterior parts would fit.

thanks!

As far as I understand it, 86-88(s4) bumpers are a little bit diffrent than the 89-91(s5) bumper's, and a new hole or two might need to be added to the bumper(not sure on that one). The Fenders should be a direct swap, but the moldings are not the same between s4 and s5 cars. There are more details in the second gen FAQ. Best of luck!

86-88 (S4) bumper/fenders interchange no problem, 89-91 (S5) bumpers are a slightly different style and mount slightly different, the 'molding' part is like S5 side molding so it wouldn't match the molding on your car; the 89-91 fenders are exactly the same except as someone stated the moldings are different, but if the moldings on your current fender are undamaged then you can swap them out
