          No, in the pic the hood is lined up perfectly, but the point in the front of the hood isnt as far up on the 87 and then theres the ridge in the middle of the hood.

                    Are there any tail panel swaps? I feel like I've asked this before.

                        1982 never had the louvers and it appears that 81 colonypark never had the louver but all other models did.

                            Cogs swapped both the header and tail panels from an '88-'91 CV onto a tudor Vic awhile back.

                              Both styles of cars can be swapped. I added 88+ tail lights to an 87' Grand Marquis coupe by replacing the corner trim and the lights along with some minor cutting of the sheet metal behind the lights. The trim on the edge of the trunk lid is different and the license plate mount will need to be modified to make up the space between the rear of the car and bumper.
