Default GT to LX swap - fitment issues

Hey.. have a question.. and I figure you guys would be able to help me out.

I currently have an 89 cobra gt.. . I wanted an LX in the first place.. but couldnt find one
I have a buddy with a 91 notchback... He wants GT ground effects on his car.

I suggested we swap parts.. but he claims his front fenders are completely different from mine (ford changed them in 91 to accomodate the bigger wheel/tire combo) and that they wouldnt fit.. at all.

I cant see the WHOLE fender being different.... can anyone shed some light on this?

Will 87-90 GT bumpers/sideskirts etc Fit on a 91-93 with no issues?

thanks!
