Noooo, not those parts.
What are the differences amoung the 92-99s, are they just cosmetic or mounting and shape diffs.
Specificaly, 92-95 and 96-99 hood and fenders.
already know the earlier fenders were plastic, and can now testify that newer ones are metal.

The lights are the same (on the front at least), and I believe the hood just has a different grille thrown on it...

Nothing is the same!!!!

The lights have clear lenses not ribbed like 92-95 and are shaped very differently.

Thanks BonneMeMN, the brackets looked different on Damemorder'* cardomain site. Wish I had my original 94 here for a heads up comparison.

There'* some pics of my 93, i'm 100% sure 92 interchanges there. 96-99 looks the same.

Was thinkin' along those lines, I'd like to figure out a cam mount that will pick up the HUD without blocking my vision. Have a Minolta Dimage that will do stills and movies (128 or 256 card)

anyway, i digressed, your headlight mounts look like my 94 and 93 this 96 has more of open looking mount and adjuster config.

Every part you damaged is unique to 96-99, and not interchangable with 92-95. Fenders, hoods, lights, grille are all different.
