Default Fixing up my stang

HEy...Ok I have a 2000 Ford Mustang! I love my car but I recently wrecked it. The front end is damaged. I gotta straighten out the frame and get a new hood, lights. bumper, and side panels. I have some one to staighten it out, but I am having trouble finding parts to my car at a junk yard (of course Im going cheap I want to repaint it anyways). The closest I have found was a 1995. I was just wondering if anyone knew if I could use the 95 to fix my 2000? Im a single mom so I have no one else to ask. Thanks

Pretty sure majority of the body panels are different between the '95 and '00. The '95 seems more rounded where as the '00 has more distinct edges. Just keep looking, I'm always coming across '99-04 parts. Also try the classifieds section on here, a lot of members sell their stock parts after they swap out for aftermarket items

Try e-bay and check the internet, you could probably piece together the correct year nose. Good luck!

Don't forget craigslist too... auto classifieds as well as the auto parts section. You never know what you'll find.

With Craigslist you can do nationwide searches too....google it. Might be able to find someone to ship some parts to you if you can find them.
