Default Body part compatability

What is the compatability on hoods, front fenders/bumpers. I have a 08/2004 build convertible that got wrecked and have the chance to get parts off of a 1998 base model. The radiator and condenser are the same part number, I would figure the core support would be the same too?

Does anyone have experience with this?

Thumbs up

Aside from the obvious, AFAIK it's only from the windshield pillars back that there are interchange issues with body parts. A TS front end will fit, but a TS rear will not, for example.

You can go here www.wagenstad.com and compare part numbers for the two years and models. (There are mistakes on their parts schematics v. p/n's, so don't consider the info carved in stone).
