Default difference in pass fender

on the 89 mustang lx i just bought, the passenger front fender doesnt appear to be the correct one. on the drivers side, all things line up, at the front were it comes to meet the front end, it is kinda rounded out to match the front piece. on the passenger side, at the bottom the fender kinda curves inward, and doesnt match up with the front end . also the body side molding doesnt match, it is smaller. was wondering if it came off of a different year or model(gt)? anyone got a clue.

sounds like the front bumper extension is not on the fender at the lower front also make sure you get the 87 to 89 part cuz the 90 to93 fenders were diff.the wheel well holes were bigger and that made the front bumper extensions diff.they made the tire area wheel well holes bigger due to the pony wheels.
