    What year CV. There will be some gap issues at the grill corners, but it should bolt right up.

        I think the face changed in 06, but I don't remember exactly how. I'm sure it'll still bolt up, but again, you'll have gap issues because the grill contour on the header panel is a little different (about an inch or 2 on either end) mercury to ford.

          You'll need to swap the header panel as well or it looks really bad.

                Rear bumper cover will bolt right on. Front bumper cover will technically bolt on but won't look quite right. You will end up having to jam it under the headerpanel because it doesn't fit quite right around the grille area.

                Hard to see from these pics, especially with a pushbar.

                  I don't understand this project.

                  You have a Marauder.
                  You have a Crown Vic.
                  You want to take Marauder parts off of a Marauder and put them on a Vic.
                  ...so then the Marauder has a naked front 'n' back?

                    the marauder has been in a roll over and is completely rusted out from the bottom. now do you understand? there is only few salvageable parts left.

                      im going to swap the MM header panel out and everything else so that it looks uniform.
                      is there a project on here that done this swap?

                          Yes, in that case, go forth and convert.

                            Then swap the header panel over too and everything will match up.
