Trying to convert my 83 mustang from the original four eye look to the newer foxbody style. What do I need besides the front bumper and new headlights?

I have a nice 84.5 front bumper cover available ( same as 83/84 but with factory foglight cutouts)
Also have nice foglights and mounting panel available as well.

If you want everything to match and look right, you wil need:
front/rear bumper, fenders and mouldings.

Also, you need the inner fiberglass bumper and bumper shocks for the front- the rear inner bumper is the same, early to late.
Oh, and DO NOT let on about aero swaps at 4 eyed pride- they tend to shit their pants over things like that.
