fender/bumper question

I have a 1986 Thunderbird, would 87-88 fenders line up except for the molding? my current fenders are rotted, dented and  :flame:  ... this maybe a  :repost:  but I don't know for sure...

http://www.coolcats.net/tech/reference/parts.html should but the molding is alittle bit diffrent as far as the height and things I think. I might get bored and mesure it later on.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

It's Gumby's fault.

 I think that line is in the center...the molding on the 87-88 might cover it up...donno...I have the upper line
