Default make an 86 into an 87?

is it possible to put the front end and bumper off on a 87-93 on a 86? or does anyone know of kits to do this?

You can pretty much interchange all the body panels for 1982-1990. I helped a friend change an '84 hatchback into full GT gear off of a '90 with no real problems.

the panels are bolt on, but what do you do with the wireign for the headlights and parking lights? I have an 81 and have been considering the swap for ease of parts, but I'm, not sure about the wirign for the headlights..
