Can anybody tell me what all is involved with this change? Parts list, that sort of thing? I would think all I need is the bumper cover, headlight panels, headlights, side marker lights and parking lights, and maybe a new front bumper support? Is this all, will the 86 front end just change out with the newer 92 front end? If anybody has done this conversion, I would like to see what all is involved. Thanks

I have everything that you need to convert it, including the wiring on the back of the headlights $150

Carpi Fenders - Might as well throw them in while you are painting everything else.

Here are some reference pictures.

Why would he need Capri fenders? The fenders look the same to me

Capri fenders look very different, and many grow to like them.

The front capri fenders wouldn't match the mustang 1/4 panels. I dont agree with converting nose styles between foxes especially between 4 eyes and areos. You will also need to change the rear bumper cover and all the side mouldings to make it match.
