Okay, so I got myself an 87 Cougar, I don't like the front end and was wondering if it is compatible with the 86 front, I want to replace the grille, bumper, and fender body. Just wondering if anyone has looked into it or if I just need to stick with the 87 look.
it bolts on but the trim may not line up.
I consider the 87-88 cars headlights ti be down right dangerous. I plan on doing the same 83-86 swap at some point on my 87 bird
also, you need to re-wire the headlights. haven't looked into it myself yet.
Just a little rewiring and trim issues? That sounds pretty easy. Thanks for the info.
How are they dangerous?

I don't think it looks bad if you delete the door and fender trim.
the head lights just plain suck. if you clean polish and re-seal them, I still consider them to be mediocre. and within a few months of sitting outside the cloud right back up or turn yellow.
Yea, after you mentioned the trim I figured I'd just toss it. I prefer the look of the 83-86 nose over the 87-88 nose anyways.
I don't like composite headlights either, regardless of make, model, year, etc. they all yellow eventually.
Now that my original question has been answered, are there any good spoilers that look good on the '87?
nascar.
If you think the 87-88 headlights suck, try driving with headlight blackouts on :mullet:
