87-88 turbo coupe front clip on a 88 cougar xr7 Reply #1 – July 14, 2014, 08:22:17 PM Fenders and hoods are the same, and 87-88 header panels and bumpers are interchangeable between cougars and birds. I believe you have to swap the bumper and header panel together though, since the tbird header panel is more pointy. Quote Selected

Hit a deer with my TC and could not find a parts car anywhere. One yard had a Cougar with a good front end, and I considered buying it til they found the only TC in the county, and I didn't even care that it was maroon going on my blue car. Quote Selected

Tbird with a cougar front end.Later the same night, after draging the car around the driveway with the brakes locked to pull the radiator support out. Ignore the missing light, I was at AutoZone getting a new bulb. And the broken price of the header panel by the hood. When you only have one car, you do what you gotta do. Quote Selected
